Honoring our Heroes

UNYTS
We are starting something new here at Unyts, to pay tribute to our heroes of organ, eye and tissue donation. It seemed fitting to call this new endeavour “Honoring our Heroes”. We know that for the families of these donors, they really are heroes, and we certainly feel the same way.

We are truly honored to share these very touching personal stories. 




Branden Edward Baker
Branden Baker was just 17 when he gave the gift of life and became an organ donor. His family is dedicated to keeping his memory alive through the message of organ donation. This loving and caring teenager will never be forgotten. His parents share their very personal stories of Branden.
