Giving Opportunities
Help us meet unfunded needs that can include patient and public education, our patient emergency fund, research aimed at improving quality of life for transplant recipients, promotion of organ and tissue donation awareness, and Camp Michitanki.
Together with our Transplant social workers, the emergency fund assists over 500 patients and families a year with needs during the transplantation process such as medication coverage, food, and transportation.

Gifts will support research, clinical innovations, and the development of new programs within the University of Michigan Transplant Center.
