Honoring the Past
“The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
The above quote has been attributed to both
Abraham Lincoln, the father of our country,
and Peter Drucker, an American management
expert. Both men were leaders with a drive for
excellence and a bold vision for the future. It is a
most fitting statement for our organization as we
look back on 2008 – a year of purposeful planning
and dedication to improvement.
In 2008 we launched our Communication Center,
realizing our vision to streamline interactions
and provide enhanced customer service by
bringing this important function in-house. We
also began a multi-year initiative to engage our
customers in constructive feedback to ensure we
are meeting their needs in the best possible way,
and strengthened the organization’s governance
by welcoming six new members to our Board of
Directors. Our work in the public continues to
increase support for donation and has resulted in
more people than ever before registering as organ
and tissue donors. We are shaping a future where
deaths on the transplant waiting list will be no
more.
As we plan for the future we also honor the past.
2009 marks the 20th anniversary of LifeSource. Our
journey spans two decades and has set the stage for
the amazing work we are accomplishing – more
than 2.8 million registered donors in the Upper

Midwest and more than 75% of people or their families
saying ‘yes’ to organ donation in the hospital.
Our vision is – and always has been – that life is a gift
to share. We look forward to the day when everyone
registers their donation decision during their lifetime,
allowing our role as stewards to simply be fulfilling
those generous wishes to help end deaths on the
transplant waiting list. With your partnership we are
creating a community where this vision will become
reality.

LifeSource Launches new Communication Center
In May LifeSource’s new in-house Communication Center
opened, serving as the region’s triage center for organ,
tissue and eye donation referrals. Previously managed by
an outside agency, the new Communication Center allows
LifeSource to provide a higher level of customer service to
hospitals, families and staff by streamlining operations.
The Communication Center is expected to receive
approximately 20,000 new referrals per year from regional
hospitals, coroners, and medical centers and is the vital first
link in providing the bridge between the loss of life and the
gift of life. Because only a small percentage of referrals
are for individuals who have the potential to be donors,
LifeSource and its partners have strong and consistent
processes in place to ensure that all opportunities for
donation are fully evaluated.
In addition to working with medical professionals to begin
the donation process, LifeSource Communication Specialists
also support families and offer the opportunity for tissue and
eye donation. “There is something special about people from
our region connecting with families in our communities,”
says Julie Zabloski, Communication Center Manager. “This
connection is resulting in more families saying ‘yes’ to tissue
donation.”

The Collaboratives:Working Together to save L ives
Since 2003 LifeSource has participated in national initiatives aimed at dramatically increasing the
number of organs donated and transplanted in the United States. These Breakthrough Collaboratives have shown great success, with groundbreaking increases in the number of lives saved through donation. Organ procurement organizations, hospitals and transplant centers have all played a part in achieving these amazing results.
Each year, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) presents a Medal of Honor to hospitals that achieve a life-saving organ donation rate of 75% or more for a sustained 12-month period. This prestigious award was bestowed upon 11 of LifeSource’s hospital partners in 2008, with
four hospitals receiving the award for the fourth year in a row.
Cheryl Anderson is the Manager, Critical Care Services, at MeritCare Hospital in Fargo, ND. Cheryl states, “We are committed to saving lives through donation and transplantation and are proud of our partnership with LifeSource. Donation at MeritCare is seen as a natural step in the end of life process and is embraced as part of our culture and mission.”
In 2008 LifeSource also continued its participation in this national initiative through the Transplant Management and Growth Collaborative, aimed at saving and enhancing thousands of lives each year by working with transplant centers to maximize the number of organs transplanted. Five transplant centers in the Upper Midwest have joined LifeSource on this journey of improvement, including University of Minnesota Medical Center, Fairview; Mayo Clinic; MeritCare; Avera McKennan; and Medcenter One.

Renew and Reinvent for Results
LifeSource embarked on a detailed exploration of customer
feedback in 2008 through a long-term initiative aimed at creating
more value for customers and infusing quality into work processes
and interactions. The Renew and Reinvent for Results initiative engaged
50 hospital customers and more than 40 LifeSource staff in a process
to solicit feedback and better understand how expectations are being
met. Based on feedback from the first phase, LifeSource is collaborating
with its partners to strengthen processes and identify opportunities for
improvement.
“This is a significant and exciting opportunity for LifeSource to design
and implement changes to the way we do our work based on feedback
from our customers,” says Brenda Welsch, Director of Quality and
Regulatory Affairs. “From the first referral call to the recovery of organs
and tissues, we are creating efficiencies, improving outcomes, and
increasing satisfaction for those who work so closely with us in our life-
saving mission.”

Medical Examiner Partnerships increase Donation opportunities
Medical examiners
and coroners
are vital partners in the
life-saving mission of
donation. A commitment
to zero denials on the part
of medical examiners and
coroners means that more
people have the opportunity
to save and heal lives
through organ and tissue
donation.
LifeSource has also been collaborating with regional
medical examiners and coroners to offer the
opportunity of donation to families served by these
offices. Unlike hospitals, medical examiners and
coroners are not required to refer potential donors
to their local donation agency. Through LifeSource's
Medical Examiner Advisory Committee and post-
donation follow-up, LifeSource has improved tissue
donation processes to ensure that medical examiners
and coroners have well-documented tools that help
them in their role of determining cause of death
and protecting public health and consumer safety. In
2008, referrals from medical examiners and coroners
increased by 39 percent.
One hundred fifty referrals came from the
Ramsey County Medical Examiner office last year,
representing a 44% increase. “It has been an honor
to work with Dr. McGee and the dedicated team at
RCME. They are strong advocates for donation and
we are grateful for their partnership and support,”
said Mike Burakowski, Medical Examiner/Funeral
Director Liaison. In recognition of RCME’s
commitment to donation, LifeSource presented Dr.
Michael McGee with an award (pictured left).

Medical Examiner Partnerships increase Donation opportunities
LifeSource Welcomes new Board of Directors
In July, LifeSource welcomed six new members
to its Board of Directors to help govern the
organization’s life-saving business. The Board of
Directors is comprised of fourteen Directors and
includes hospital and transplant representatives;
community members; transplant recipients;
transplant recipient family members; and donor
family members. “We are thrilled to have such a
dedicated group of leaders join us on this journey of
persistent and continual improvement,” says Susan
Gunderson, Chief Executive Officer.
The new members of the Board include Brock
Nelson, President and CEO, Regions Hospital;
Keith Fahnhorst, Transplant Recipient and Sr.
Vice-President-Investments, UBS Financial; Scott
Anderson, Chairman, Mirabelle Management;
Judge Gail Hagerty, Presiding District Judge,
North Dakota Judicial System; Brandyn Herbold,
Transplant Recipient; and Bruce King, Transplant
Recipient and Assistant to the President for
Institutional Diversity, St. Olaf College.
1989
LifeSource hires its first employee, Susan Gunderson, and is granted full membership in the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) as an organ procurement organization.
1990 LifeSource coordinators work with the families of 109 organ donors.
1992 LifeSource averages four lives saved per organ donor, the highest rate in the country.
1993 LifeSource begins its Donor Family Services program to provide ongoing grief support to donor families.
1999 LifeSource expands donation options for the families it serves, offering the opportunity to donate tissue. During the first year of the tissue recovery program, LifeSource worked with the families of 27 generous tissue donors.
1989-2009
honoring 20 years
“It’s been more than twenty years, and I’m doing really well,” Marisa begins with a smile. “My transplant gave me a life I might not otherwise have.”
That life includes working full-time, attending school, coaching a Special Olympics team, mentoring children awaiting a liver transplant, competing in a combined 12 US and World Transplant Games since 1996, and recently purchasing her first home. Meeting Marisa today, you’d be hard-pressed to see any effects of the liver disease that plagued her as a child.
Marisa was born with a rare condition called biliary atresia which eventually caused her to have liver failure. A diagnosis at just a few months old prompted her first surgery to try and control the progressive disease. Nearly a decade
12
later, after one of the first successful pediatric liver transplants was performed at the University of Minnesota, transplantation proved to be a viable option for Marisa.
Marisa was about ten years old at the time, and the side effects from her previous surgery were starting to weigh on her. Her abdomen was uncomfortable and protruded due to an enlarged spleen, and she couldn’t play contact sports. “It was hard to sit and watch, when I really wanted to play,” she says.
Waiting for a liver transplant at such a young age was difficult, although she admits that the wait was probably harder on her parents. “I wasn’t really scared at first,” shares Marisa. “Then one day I looked at my mom with tears in my eyes and said, ‘I’m going to die.’ That’s when I realized how serious it was.”
In 1988, Marisa received the gift of a liver transplant from a seven year-old boy named Jeremiah. Nine years later, Marisa met her donor’s family and has stayed in touch. She hopes that one day they’ll be able to see her compete in her favorite Transplant Games sport – swimming. “That would be really cool.”
2002 Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota pass legislation allowing a person’s lifetime decision to be a donor to be honored.
2003 LifeSource joins the Organ Donation Breakthrough Collaborative, a national initiative aimed at ending deaths on the transplant waiting list.
2008 LifeSource honors the donation wishes of a record 654 tissue donors, and more than 2.8 million people in the Upper Midwest are registered organ and tissue donors.
2009 Since its inception, LifeSource has worked with the families of more than 4,900 generous donors, providing more than 10,000 organs for transplant and more than 100,000 tissue grafts for those in need.
“Organ donation has given me life.”

Sharing the Message in the Digital Age
More and more people are turning to the internet
as a way to connect with one another. Social
media, like Facebook and blogs, continue to gain ground
as a tool for connecting people with a shared purpose.
Organ and tissue donation is perfectly suited to this
medium, as it brings together powerful stories of hope,
love and life.
In August, LifeSource launched its new public education
blog, The Source (http://donatelife.wordpress.com).
Filling the virtual pages with information about donation,
interactions at public events and messages from donor
families and recipients, The Source is proving to be a
wonderful vehicle for connecting with the public and
increasing support for donation.
Later in the year, LifeSource built on the success of
The Source by launching MyDonationResource.org,
a site with information and education for healthcare
professionals and funeral directors. “Healthcare and
funeral professionals are instrumental in supporting
patients and families through end of life experiences,”
said Kathy Hicks, Education Coordinator. “Our hope is
that this site will provide resources to assist professionals
in helping us make donation opportunities a reality for
grieving families.”

South Dakota Governor Recognizes Donor Famil ies
In May, Governor Michael Rounds and his wife, First Lady Jean Rounds,
honored the families of organ and tissue donors in a special recognition
ceremony in Pierre, South Dakota. Governor Rounds called each of the
families who were present onstage to personally thank them for their
generosity and compassion and present them with a donor medal of honor.
Pictured are donor parents Charles and Marilyn Bruner with the governor and
first lady. Nearly 90 people were present, representing generous individuals
from around the state who extended the gift of life through organ and tissue
donation.
“It was a powerful event,” said John LeMay, Family Services Coordinator.
“Donor families truly connected, sharing tears and laughter, gaining strength
from one another as they were recognized by the highest office in the state for
the generosity of their loved ones.”

Donor Families and recip ients Connect at P icnics
In 2008 LifeSource hosted its first donor
family and transplant recipient picnics in
Duluth, Minnesota and Sioux Falls, South
Dakota. The picnics were an opportunity for
donor families and transplant recipients to share
their experiences and learn from one another.
More than 280 people attended the two picnics
and a local television station and a newspaper in
Duluth covered the inspiring event, sharing the
story of one donor mom who attended with her
son's heart recipient.
"Having never held such an event before, we
were pleasantly surprised to gather with so many
people who have been impacted by donation and
transplantation," said Jill Halimi, Family Services
Coordinator. In 2009, LifeSource is planning
picnics in Fargo, North Dakota; Rapid City,
South Dakota; and the Twin Cities metro area.

The Impact of Media
Donor mom Beth Sandstrom's sixteen year-old son,
Mark, died in April of 2003. Upon his death,
Mark gave the gift of life to four grateful recipients,
including Vern Iverson. Vern received the gift of Mark’s
heart. "We thought it was something that Mark would
want us to do," said Beth. "He was such a giving person."
Beth and Vern met one another in 2008, first during the
summer and then again at LifeSource’s donor family and
transplant recipient picnic in Duluth (pictured at right).
Their story was covered by a local television station and
newspaper.
Shortly after the stories about the picnic were published,
one of LifeSource’s Family Services Coordinators, Jill
Halimi, received a call from a kidney transplant recipient
named Susan who lives in California and received her
gift of life in 1988. Susan’s cousin, who lives in the
Duluth area, had read the article about Vern and Beth and
forwarded it to her. Susan was deeply touched by the
article and went on to share that she had never reached
out to her donor’s family
in the 20 years since her
transplant. She had been
told that her donor was
a 10 year-old little boy
and had felt great guilt
about this. Receiving
the article about Vern
and Beth prompted her
to contact LifeSource
to learn how she could
write to her donor
family.
The recipient and donor
family wrote to one another through LifeSource and shortly
thereafter decided to have direct contact with one another.
The two families have exchanged photos, letters and have
spoken on the phone. "This is a wonderful outcome to an
already magnificent event," shared Jill.

Barbershop Conversations: Clean Cut and To the Point
There is an important need to increase the
number of African-American men who
are organ donors. Unfortunately they have
a low likelihood of being registered donors
while experiencing high rates of diabetes, high
blood pressure, stress and obesity – conditions
which may lead to needing a kidney transplant.
The result is a disparity between the number
of African-American men who need a
transplant and the number who donate.
To address this disparity, LifeSource is once
again partnering with Q Health Connections
(formerly Southside Community Outreach) to
share the life-saving message of donation with
the Twin Cities African American community.
Barbershop Conversations is a community-based
education program with African-American
barbers serving as trusted messengers,
engaging clients in a dialogue about health
and wellness. The program seeks to promote
health and increase organ donation in the
African-American community.
"Barbers are trusted opinion leaders who
have a high degree of credibility, respect, and
influence in the community," says Clarence
Jones, Community Outreach Director at Q
Health Connections. "Barbers are therefore in
a unique position to improve the health of their
community by providing education directly to
clients."
Barbers throughout the Twin cities have
agreed to participate in the program, have
gone through training to learn about health
issues and donation, and have been trained
on motivational interviewing techniques. The
barbers are now engaged in conversations
with their clients about these important health
issues.

LifeSource Volunteers in Action
LifeSource volunteers share the life-saving message of donation and
transplantation within their communities and are a vital component
of our public education program. Donor families, recipients and those
waiting for transplant share their powerful and emotional stories, putting
a face on the need for more donors. From health and driver’s education
to community fairs and church groups, more than 500 volunteers work
tirelessly to encourage people in our communities to register as donors.
In 2008, LifeSource volunteers contributed over 1,500 hours.
For six days each August, LifeSource volunteers share the message of
donation with 250,000 fairgoers at the largest fair in South Dakota - the
Sioux Empire Fair in Sioux Falls. Close to 20 volunteers help staff the
LifeSource booth for the 72 hours of the fair, encouraging people to
register as an organ and tissue donor, sharing their personal story and
providing accurate information about donation and transplantation.
