We are dedicated to the vibrant lung transplant community! Stay updated on events tailored specifically for individuals who have undergone or are awaiting lung transplants as well as their family members and caretakers.

In this workshop, we’ll excavate our experiences for moments of magic while acknowledging the difficulty and use writing prompts to help reflect on how these experiences have led to transformation. Bring your curiosity and something to write with. There will be opportunities to share your writing and participate in group discussion, if desired. No experience necessary.
Lung Transplant Awareness Day is a national initiative dedicated to raising awareness, promoting education, and empowering advocacy around lung transplantation. Held every year on October 9, it is a time to honor patients, caregivers, donors, and medical professionals who make this life-saving procedure possible.
Being told your child needs a lung transplant is something no parent wants to hear. That’s why on October 22 at 7pm EST, we have invited Dr. David Moreno McNeill of Texas Children’s Hospital to provide a foundational understanding of pediatric lung transplant for anyone currently facing this new challenge. He will be joined by Amanda Hutson, a parent and caregiver for her 13-year old daughter, who will share her experience. Register today for this special event in celebration of National Children’s Health Month!
We know that together, we can help increase education about Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS), and, in turn, help speed the development of potential new treatments and facilitate understanding of the cause of the condition. Join us as we unite for BOS Education Day.
A Lungaversary® is the anniversary of a person’s lung transplant. Lungaversaries are celebrated around the world, often with festivities such as a party, gifts, cards, donations to a charity, or some other rite of passage.
