My Story…
As a nurse on the Solid Organ Transplant unit at Boston Children's Hospital I've seen first hand just how lives are changed by the gift of organ donation. I've been there with children and their families through every step and get to experience that incredible joy right along with them. But prior to working at BCH, I never could have imagined how difficult the whole process can be for the kids and also the toll it takes on their loved ones while they wait for that life saving phone call and during recovery. The work that Tiny Transplant Titans is doing to bring support to families and patients through this process, and raise awareness about pediatric organ donation is so important and very close to my heart.
It's such an honor to be running the Falmouth Road Race for Tiny Transplant Titans!
Description
Tiny Transplant Titans is a 501(c)(3) that provides support to children who have received life-saving transplants, those waiting for their gift of life, and those needing a transplant in the future. We started this non-profit in honor of our son, Steve, who received a liver transplant at 22 months old. Our son, our experience and our support system motivated us to start Tiny Transplant Titans and we hope to provide support to other families going through the long road of pediatric transplant.
We are honored to be part of the 2024 ASICS Falmouth Road Race! The funds raised by our dedicated runners will allow us to help over 300 more children and families. Team Tiny Transplant Titans will be running 7 miles on August 18 to not only raise money but also raise awareness for organ donation.
Thank you for supporting our mission by running or donating to our team! Your generosity means the world to us and so many other families facing pediatric transplant. We could not do this without you! THANK YOU!
