Help us save lives!
A transplant birthday is the day a patient receives the cells that can save their life. Every transplant birthday begins the same way: with a search for a matching donor. Right now, that search is underway for patients whose survival depends on finding their matches in time.
This is an urgent call to action. Ignacio, King, Ace, Rose, and many others like them do not have time to wait.
This is a campaign with a deadline. It runs through July 28 — the 31st transplant birthday of Jay Feinberg, Gift of Life's founder and CEO — and every day between now and then matters.
Gift of Life exists because Jay's family refused to give up. His search for a match became a movement, and his match saved his life. Jay has said that being alive is his celebration every year on this day. This year, we're asking you to help give that same celebration to patients everywhere who are still waiting.
Your charitable gift will allow Gift of Life to process donor swab kits and add more potentially lifesaving matches to the registry. When it comes to someone's life, there is no time to lose. Every $60 contribution will fund the testing of one swab kit. That one kit could be the match that saves a life.
Give now to help save the lives of countless patients who are waiting, before it is too late:
Ignacio: A father, coach, and community leader. Thousands have rallied behind him, but the match that could save his life still hasn't been found. He is desperately searching and needs your help.
King & Ace: Two brothers, one family, facing the imaginable. Both boys need a match to survive, and the clock is running for each of them at the same time
Rose: A mom, wife, and Physician Assistant. Without a match, she fears she will miss out on important moments with her family.
If you've been waiting for the right time to give, this is your sign that it is now.
