Colby Foundation

Colby Cassani
March 18, 1992 - June 8, 1993

In 1993, John and Starla Cassani suffered the tragic loss of their infant son, Colby. While still grieving, they found a measure of hope and healing through donating his organs. In 1995, they started the Colby Foundation to honor his memory and to educate others about organ and tissue donation.

Did you know that one person’s decision to become an organ and tissue donor can save or improve the lives of fifty others?

Colby Cassani Endowed Lectureship Series

The Colby Foundation offers the Colby Cassani Endowed Lectureship series to fund Organ and Tissue Donation curricula to our future physicians. We invite schools of medicine to inquire about this perpetual endowment.
