She is currently on the Starz Network for Excellence in Pediatric Transplantation as a patient family voice for the Patient-Center Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). She also volunteers for the Center for Organ Recovery & Education (CORE), and does speaking engagements for local hospitals to promote organ donation. Sarah’s family has participated in several media campaigns to help promote organ donation. ​
