Organ donations are at a record high in New England — and one of them saved an 8-year-old’s life
With an 80% increase since 2020, the number of people donating organs in New England is at a record high. With 648 donors, there were a total of 1,570 transplants across the region in 2024.
One transplant in Maine was for an 8-year-old girl, Emily, whose lungs were failing. She and her family waited for seven months for another family “to make the hardest decision on their darkest day.”
Emily got her transplant and is one beneficiary of the generosity of New Englanders who choose to become organ donors — and the skill of doctors who perform the life-saving procedures.
Be the good: Encouraging others to become organ donors, Emily’s mom said, “If you have the opportunity where your loved one or you're making the decision for your loved one, to be that for somebody else, it is the best gift you could give anybody.”

A Dutch fashion designer invented a snowsuit-turned-sleeping bag to help homeless folks keep warm
Dutch fashion designer Bas Timmer was designing luxury outerwear when he learned a friend’s father had died from hypothermia while sleeping outside, he immediately felt a disconnect between his work and the reality so many people face.
And he wanted to help. Pulling together the jackets he was already working on — and an old sleeping bag and tent — in five hours, he made the first prototype of what became the Sheltersuit.
Now, over a decade later, The Sheltersuit Foundation provides vital warming supplies to people experiencing homelessness across Europe, the United Kingdom, South Africa, and the United States.
They’re not “a replacement for finding a home but a supplement to when you have no other choice,” Timmer says.
Between errands and home care tasks I’ve always said I’d love to have just onnne more weekend day for actual resting, hobbies, or just-for-fun activities!
