Headquartered in San Antonio, TOSA facilitates organ donation services for families and thoughtful individuals who sought to become registered organ donors with the state’s official registry, Donate Life Texas. TOSA has been in San Antonio since 1975, servicing 56 counties with regional offices in Austin and the Rio Grande Valley. MDN
