Holiday Angels Bless Transplant Families

Transplant Foundation’s Holiday Angels Program has been done for many years and it involves you, the transplant community, adopting transplant families in need.  What is special about this program, is that we connect our Holiday Angel with the transplant family and they, in turn, buy items and deliver gifts directly to their adopted family.  You have that personal connection with the family and see for yourself where your gifts are going.

This year’s program has surpassed any goal with 62 families being adopted.  We would like to thank all of the individuals and organizations alike who adopted transplant families in need:   Paul & Sheila Alterman * Demetrio Brid * Broward County Human Services Department * Gilbert & Susan Chediak * Virginia Clay * Peter & Eli Compton * EDOD Student Club, University School * Paul & Diane Klein * Ed & Barbara Lawrence * Leading Ladies * Linares family * Joan Lyons * Donna Signs * Monica Trujillo * David & Melissa Wetzel. 

If you would like to adopt a transplant family in need through next year’s Holiday Angels Program, please contact Melissa Chediak Wetzel at 305.817.5645.
