HOUSTON, Feb. 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Service Corporation International (NYSE: SCI), North America's largest provider of funeral, cemetery and cremation services, and its brand, Dignity Memorial®, is partnering with Donate Life America (DLA) to save lives through organ, eye and tissue donation. The company will become an official partner of Donate Life America with a $250,000 donation as we approach National Donor Day, Feb. 14, 2021. Funds will be used for programs and initiatives designed to increase awareness of organ, eye and tissue donation and to improve the process of becoming a donor.

"Our company has long advocated for organ, eye and tissue donation, and many of our Dignity Memorial locations have long-standing relationships with Donate Life affiliates in our respective communities," said Jay Waring, SCI Chief Operating Officer. "Our mission is to celebrate the significance of life, with every detail remembered, and we are honored to partner with Donate Life America's vision to increase the number of donated organs, eyes and tissues available to save and heal lives through transplantation."

For the past 13 years, Dignity Memorial has been a sponsor of the Donate Life Rose Parade® Float. The company has honored the lives of 58 remarkable organ and tissue donors through "floragraphs," portraits made of floral and natural materials, which are placed on the Donate Life float entry produced by the OneLegacy Foundation in the annual Tournament of Roses Parade. For families who participate in this program, it is an indescribable experience which often provides hope, healing and comfort in their grief journey.
