A Message From Mike’s Heartbeats

Mike Sheffield received his gift of life, a heart, on September 14, 2016. We are so grateful that his donor’s family chose the gift of life in their time of grief. Because of this generous gift, Mike continues to enjoy memories with his family and friends and is enjoying retirement on the golf course and on the lake. We are walking in honor of his donor Colleen and ask everyone to give generously to this amazing organization.

The LOPA Foundation has been designated as a 501(c)3 charitable and tax-exempt organization by the Internal Revenue Service and is treated by the IRS as a supporting foundation to LOPA.

About LOPA: Louisiana Organ Procurement Agency (LOPA) was established on April 1, 1988 as an independent, not-for-profit organ and tissue recovery agency. LOPA is federally designated by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid as the organ procurement organization (OPO) responsible for servicing the state of Louisiana. LOPA is tasked with two main objectives; housing and maintaining the Louisiana Donor Registry, and recovering organs and tissue for transplant. LOPA partners with professionals throughout the state, including eye banks and all hospitals within Louisiana, to accomplish its life saving and enhancing goals. Education is key to this process, and our staff offers a variety of educational opportunities for the public and professionals within our state.
