LifeGift’s primary concern is the health and safety of our walk/run participants, volunteers and staff. We’ve been closely monitoring the guidance from health and governmental officials. As many of our participants and volunteers are transplant recipients or currently on the transplant waiting list, we’re especially mindful of important safety precautions.
Yes, we’re disappointed we won’t be hosting our 18th Annual Donate Life Texas 2nd Chance Run in the historic Fort Worth Stockyards; but, we’re thrilled we can still support the mission of saving lives through organ and tissue donation.
On Saturday, May 16th you can run or walk 1 mile or 3.1 miles (5k) individually, wherever you are. Different streets. Same day. Same mission. If you choose to do so, please follow your city or county’s recommendations on participation in outdoor activities and practice social distancing, staying at least six feet away from other people.
Registered participants will receive a Donate Life Run 2020 t-shirt. In the meantime, we want to meet up with you on social media! If you are able to do a physical activity in support of our mission, send us a picture or post a comment of support to our donor families, transplant recipients and other members of our Donate Life community. You can transfer your registration into a donation to LifeGift, and we still want to see your posts on social media! Take a selfie and let us know what the mission of saving lives through organ and tissue donation means to you. #2ndChanceRun, #DonateLife and #GoingVirtualMissionGoesOn!
By joining us in this virtual run through participation or donation, you are supporting our community of more than 10,000 Texans who are waiting for a critical organ transplant.
If you have questions, please contact Dagmar Climo, LifeGift Director of Communications at dclimo@lifegift.org.
