Raising the Donate Life Flag at Infinite Legacy
Infinite Legacy hosts a flag raising event for our staff every April in honor of our heroic donors. This solemn event is a time to connect to purpose and reflect on the life and legacy of our donor heroes.
Infinite Legacy staff recite the traditional poem “We Remember Them” followed by a moment of silence. The flag raising ceremony will be live-streamed for the public via Infinite Legacy’s Facebook and YouTube channels. The video will stay up for those unable to attend the flag raising.
Please be aware the date and time of our Flag Raising event can change depending on inclement weather.
