Before a transplant birthday, there is a search.
The Summer Search is a campaign to fund swab kit testing for patients searching for lifesaving matches, including King, Ace, Rose, and Ignacio.
The campaign closes on July 28, the 31st transplant birthday of Jay Feinberg, Gift of Life’s founder and CEO. Gift of Life began with Jay’s own search for a matching donor. His match changed his life, and his search became the beginning of Gift of Life.
Today, patients are still searching for matches of their own. Every gift helps fund swab kit testing and add more potential donors to the registry.
King & Ace
Two brothers. One family. Two matches needed.
Rose
A mom, wife, and Physician Assistant searching for her match.
Ignacio
A father, coach, and community leader whose search has mobilized thousands.
July 28 is Jay Feinberg’s 31st transplant birthday.
Before Jay had a transplant birthday, he had a search. Someone joined the registry. Someone became his match. That match made Gift of Life possible.
Now, The Summer Search helps power the searches happening today. One match can change everything.
