Celebrate Life 5K Run/Walk
If you wish to submit a photo of a donor or recipient loved one for the Garden of Heroes, be sure to upload a photo when you register. We kindly ask that this is completed no later than September 15.
Our Annual Celebrate Life 5K Run/Walk will be held on Sunday, October 5th, in Forest Park at the Upper Muny Lot. We are excited to raise awareness about organ, tissue, and eye donation and to celebrate the gift of life. By bringing the St. Louis Transplant Community together, we will honor donor families and living donors, celebrate new life with recipients, support those waiting for a life-saving transplant, and inspire others to say yes to donation. Mid-America Transplant is focused on strengthening our communities by not only serving as the link between patients awaiting organ and tissue transplants and those who donate, but also as a community-based resource providing education and bereavement support.
