Transplant Games of America to be held in Salt Lake City, UT in 2018

Team Texas participated in the Transplant Games of America.
This competition was for transplant recipients and living donors. The over all event is a time to show appreciation to our loved ones who care for us and our everlasting gratitude to Donor Families . They are an amazing way to raise awareness for organ donation. The games also promote a healthy lifestyle and most importantly creating relationships with people who understand transplantation, and help spread the word of importance of organ donation. The U.S. Transplant Games have been every other year. The first National Games were a small group of transplant recipients that gathered in the Great State of Texas.
