With CORE being only one of four complete OPOs in the country, which means our facilities include an on-site eye bank at our Pittsburgh headquarters, we are happy to contribute to these outstanding national eye banking numbers! These impressive figures represent the wonderful gift that cornea donors have given to those waiting for the gift of sight! #corneadonation #cornea #eyebank #tissuedonation

We are so fortunate for the leadership Kurt Shutterly provided to our organization over the years! He will be deeply missed, but we will work hard to continue his commitment to excellence.
As our esteemed COO, Kurt Shutterly, announces his retirement, we face the monumental task of finding someone who can fill his exceptional shoes. Kurt's leadership and vision have been instrumental in our success, and he leaves behind a legacy of excellence. I am deeply honored to co-chair the search committee alongside our CEO, Susan, to find the perfect successor who will continue to drive our mission forward. We are committed to finding a leader who embodies the same passion, dedication, and innovation that Kurt has shown throughout his tenure. Stay tuned for updates as we embark on this important journey. Here’s to continued success! #Leadership #COOSearch #CORE #OraganProcurement #DonateLife
