The Gift of Life: How Organ Donation Changes Lives Forever

Thank you KHOU 11 News Great Day Houston and Deborah Duncan for the opportunity to talk about organ donation this morning! Check out the segment below as heart transplant recipient Peter Mpagi, donor mother Danielle Turner and LifeGift’s senior director of organ operations and surgical recovery Woodlhey Ambroise share their stories and emphasize the critical need for registering to be an organ donor, especially in our multicultural communities. We also made sure we provided our LifeGift myth flyer so we could help debunk some of the prevalent misinformation existing in our communities.

Special thanks to Houston Methodist heart transplant coordinator Karen Christos who was on hand to support Peter.
