Amazon Smile Program Trio Oklahoma

On the anniversary of my transplant, I wanted to tell you about a fundraiser that doesn’t cost YOU a dime. It is a great way to support the Amazon Smile Program Trio Oklahoma for the Transplant Recipients of Oklahoma.

This organization was formed in 2020 to serve the needs of anyone who is pre and post transplant. It doesn’t matter which organ, and there are no membership fees. We want everyone waiting on the list to have a connection to hope and help.
