Empowering Lives: The Impact of the Donor Network West Event
Celebrating the Spirit of Organ Donation
Community members are warmly invited to participate in a meaningful event that celebrates hope and resilience. The 15th Annual Donor Network West Foundation Run/Walk invites everyone to lend their feet in support of organ donors and their families, as well as those who have received transplants. This spirited event aims to raise vital funds that will enhance services for organ donor families and transplant recipients.
A Meaningful Gathering for a Worthy Cause
The Run/Walk is expected to draw over 700 participants, all walking in solidarity for patients and families affected by organ donation. Everyone is encouraged to gather for this inspiring 5-kilometer walk or run, uniting for a common purpose and advocating for a cause that saves lives. Community members can form teams or participate individually by registering online.
Honoring Lives Through Action
Each step participants take during the Run/Walk will contribute to significant initiatives aimed at enhancing resources and awareness surrounding organ donation. This year's event will honor remarkable individuals who have made the ultimate gift, such as Tyree Jackson, an advocate for organ donation who tragically lost his life in an accident. His legacy lives on as his mother, Summer Eyo, leads Team #BeLikeTyree during the event, walking alongside Isabelle Estrada, the recipient of Tyree's heart.
Celebrating Stories of Giving
Tyree's story highlights the power of giving. After losing important father figures in his life, he committed himself to the cause of organ donation. At just 22 years old, he chose to be an organ donor, ultimately saving four lives. In honoring his legacy, the 15th Annual Run/Walk embodies the spirit of community, compassion, and love.
Community Support and Involvement
This event is more than just a run or a walk; it's a community gathering that brings individuals together to recognize the importance of organ donation. The aim is not only to raise funds but also to inspire hope among those waiting for a transplant. This year, renowned sponsors, local businesses, and volunteers are contributing their time, energy, and resources to ensure the success of this meaningful gathering.

Janice Whaley, the President and CEO of Donor Network West, emphasizes the significance of communal support: “The Run/Walk is a tradition that unites us, showcasing our commitment to those who have given and those who continue to wait for a life-saving organ.
