Details: Every spring, the Philadelphia medical schools come together for the annual HGR Celebration of Remembrance. The Celebration of Remembrance is an event held by the Humanities Gifts Registry of Pennsylvania, where we honor and remember the individuals who donated their bodies for our medical school education. Family members of our donors will be in attendance, as well as members and students from all Philadelphia Medical Schools. As a tradition, this is a student-run event and relies heavily on our students' participation.
