In June 2026, athletes, donors, and transplant recipients from across the nation will gather in Denver, Colorado, for the Transplant Games of America. For the first time ever, the inaugural US Armed Forces Transplant Team (USAFTT) will join state teams from around US and will celebrate the power of organ donation, the strength of the human spirit, and the lives forever changed through the gift of life.
As a proud U.S. Air Force veteran and living donor of both a kidney and liver, I’m honored to represent the USAFTT in this historic first. Competing at the Games is about more than sport — it’s about honoring those who have given, received, and advocated for donation, while inspiring others to say “yes” to giving life.
Every step I take in Denver will represent resilience, hope, and the belief that one act of generosity can change the world.
Your support helps make this possible. 100% of all tax-deductible donations will go directly toward travel, lodging, uniforms, and registration costs, ensuring athletes like me can compete, connect, and continue raising awareness for organ, eye, and tissue donation.
No contribution is too small; each one brings us closer to amplifying the message that donation saves lives. Together, we can make history at the Games and show what the transplant community can achieve when we unite in purpose and pride.
Thank you for supporting me, the USAFTT, and this life-saving mission!
