Due to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Willed Body Program at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) will temporarily stop accepting donors from Monday, July 10, until further notice.
Donors and their loved ones are urged to look for alternative arrangements at this time. If a donor dies during this temporary closure, loved ones or other appropriate individual(s) are kindly asked to notify the program.
In the meantime, new enrollment paperwork will continue to be screened with only acknowledgement of receipt until the program is able to accept new applicants.
The support from the community to the program has been tremendous. The program is grateful to all donors who ensure JABSOM’s mission of attaining lasting optimal health for all continues and looks forward to reopening in the near future.
