Preston met his lifesaving donor, Jen, last year at the Walk for Life.

Join Gift of Life's Walk for Life at Eisenhower Park. We need your help setting up the event, handing out tshirts, water, and more. As a volunteer you play a crucial role in the event's success. We can't do it without you!

Gift of Life Bone Marrow Foundation helps children and adults suffering from leukemia, lymphoma, other cancers and genetic disorders find matching donors for blood and marrow transplants. The Walk for Life raises awareness about the need to increase the number of donors in the worldwide registry so that more matches can be found for patients in need. Walk for Life is a unique event where a transplant recipient is introduced to their lifesaving donor for the very first time. It is a family friendly day.
