The gift of life is something almost anyone can give, whether it be through something as simple as a blood donation or significant as an organ transplant.
April is National Donate Life Month, an effort to encourage people to register as organ donors and raise awareness of these vital procedures, which saved the lives of more than 1,200 New Englanders just last year.
