They continue to create a sustainable culture of philanthropy that supports the advancement of the CTC’s groundbreaking initiatives and cutting-edge programs to better aid transplant patients. Aside from their efforts to support the CTC, they’ve created an organization where organ recipients, family members, and donors can connect, find support, and perpetuate the cycle of giving from one person to the next while supporting the CTC in ensure they continue to do the amazing work they do.
