From the Organizer
Midwest Transplant Network invites you to join us for our annual Donate Life Legacy Walk on Sept 12, 2026. This FREE community event will feature a live concert by Twice on Sunday, a variety of food trucks, and a Tribute Trail honoring the donor heroes and transplant warriors who inspire us all. It’s an opportunity for those impacted by organ, eye, and tissue donation to come together on the southwest lawn of the National WWI Museum and Memorial.
Join us as we celebrate the gift of life and raise awareness about the importance of registering as organ, eye, and tissue donors.
