HELENA — This past Giving Tuesday the Governor’s Office of Community Service (GOCS) raised funds to support the Threshold of Life memorial. The memorial will serve as a lasting tribute to those who have given the gift of life through organ donation and a symbol of hope for those who are waiting.
The memorial will be located on the State Capitol grounds offering a space for reflection, remembrance, and education about the positive impacts of organ donation. Funds raised on Giving Tuesday will go directly toward the construction and maintenance of the memorial, ensuring that the legacy of donors is preserved for generations to come.
“On Giving Tuesday, we are inspired by the power of generosity. Organ donors give the most precious gift of all - the gift of life,” said Sarah R. Sadowski, Director of the Governor’s Office of Community Service. “This memorial will serve as a place of honor and reflection for donor families, recipients, and all of Montana across generations.”
As part of this Global Day of Generosity, GOCS invited all Montanans to contribute to the memorial fund to make this vision a reality. Given joyfully, charitable donations of every size are meaningful and will advance this lasting project. This project is powered by the Helena Area Community Foundation.
