of Giving
You can support our mission of changing lives by saving sight in multiple ways!
Resources for Medical Examiners & Coroners
Saving Sight is committed to working with Medical Examiners and Coroners throughout its service area in Missouri, Kansas, and Illinois. We believe that donation should not conflict with the important work you do in serving the community. We work with you to quickly facilitate the eye donation process and help meet your needs, as well. Saving Sight is able to collect vitreous samples and provide photographs, upon request.
If you’re interested in learning more about collaborating with Saving Sight to fulfill the wishes of eye donors and their families, please contact our Hospital Development team. We’re happy to provide education, additional information and work with you to find a process that meets everyone’s needs.

Jim Allmon, Sangamon County Chief Deputy Coroner, shares why he supports donation.
“While it is hard to say, we realize that donation has been a blessing for us and for our daughter. It is the good that came out of her tragic accident. Donation meant that Maddie’s story didn’t end at the side of the road, after her junior prom. Her story is that while she died very young, she helped people in their time of need. We are proud of her … of the selfless act she could be part of – because we know that this is the decision that our daughter would have made had she been given the chance.” – Jim Allmon
