Event Partner Spotlights
Lifeline of Ohio works with trusted community and faith partners to improve the quality of life of diverse communities by creating a positive culture for organ, eye and tissue donation.
Burton’s creative instinct propels her to experiment with color and texture, producing a signature style that has evolved into a vibrant brand of wearable art that is far from ordinary.
We are grateful to partner with M. Nicholson to help promote the health and wellness of the community.
NPHC of Columbus focuses on community service programming, professional leadership growth and combating socio-economical obstacles for the benefit of its members and the betterment of the African American communities where they live. These initiatives include providing programmatic thrusts that directly affect the lives of African Americans in the areas economic stability, achieving higher-level education, youth development and community growth.

Black Lives Matter
African Americans are disproportionately affected by inequities that reduce access to healthcare and illness, often leading to organ failure. Lifeline of Ohio recognizes that before we can empower the Black community to save and heal others through organ, eye and tissue donation, we must first acknowledge their pain, cultivate trust, provide support and deliver resources to improve their overall health and wellness.
