Connection to donation/transplantation 
My son, John, passed away in 2010 and healed lives through tissue donation. 

Competitions/Events at the 2024 Transplant Games of America 
I am attending the special events for donor families and cheering on my teammates at their competitions.

How many Transplant Games have you attended?
This will be my third Games.

Why do you participate in the Transplant Games?
I participate to raise awareness about what it means to be a donor. I am so proud of my son for being a donor.  

One thing you want others to know about donation.
Seeing all of the transplant recipients who participate in the Games is a reminder of how important it is to be a donor.
