Donate Life Month is celebrated every April and is a time to bring awareness to the importance of organ, eye and tissue donation as well as donor registration. As a community, you have a unique opportunity to join the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office in helping those in need.
In honor of April’s National Donate Life Month, the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office and several first responder agencies throughout the state have partnered with Nevada Donor Network to host a press conference announcing the “Silver State Heroes” campaign. This press conference will take place Monday, April 3 at 2 p.m. at the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office.
