Our Focus
“Giving the Gift of Life” and “Common Sense Solutions for Healthy Living”.
Our Goal
“To increase community awareness about organ donation and the importance of healthy living!”
Our Reason
It is a tragedy that so many wait for transplants that they will never receive because of financial considerations. It is an even greater tragedy that anyone needs a transplant when proper nutrition and exercise could help prevent such occurrences.
