Feeling incredibly grateful after hosting The Gift of Life: Stories That Connect Us this Donate Life Month 🩵💚

Thank you to our amazing panelists who shared their powerful, personal stories and perspectives—from donation to transplantation and everything in between. Your honesty, compassion, and courage made this conversation truly unforgettable.

We’re also so thankful to everyone who attended, listened, asked questions, and helped create such a meaningful space for connection and learning.

A special thank you to our partners at LIJ Valley Stream Hospital and the Hispanic & Latino BERG for helping bring this event to life.

Moments like these remind us why education and awareness around organ, eye, and tissue donation matter so much. The impact is real—and it connects us all.

🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸
Today, we pause to honor the courage, sacrifice, and service of all who have worn our nation’s uniform.

At the Lions Eye Bank for Long Island, we are deeply grateful to the veterans who have given so much—and to the heroes and families who choose to give the gift of sight through donation. Your legacy of service continues to make a difference in the lives of others.

Thank you for your strength, your dedication, and your continued commitment. ❤️

A picture is worth a thousand words, and this one tells the story of improved vision for Long Islanders! Our Board of Directors recently donated a Kona Corneal Endothelial Camera to Nassau University Medical Center’s Department of Ophthalmology. This vital equipment will help doctors like our Medical Director, Dr. Henry Perry and Residency Program Director and Chairman of Dept. of Ophthalmology Dr. Marcelle Morcos, provide even better care to patients in need of corneal transplants. Learn more about our life-changing work at www.lebli.org.
