Our mission is to improve the lives of lung transplant patients and their families.

Today We Celebrate Lung Transplant Awareness Day

Topics:

Inhale Gratitude. Exhale Hope

Today, we make history together. It’s the first-ever Lung Transplant Awareness Day. Today is dedicated to raising awareness, promoting education, and amplifying advocacy around lung transplantation.

For thousands living with advanced lung disease, a lung transplant represents hope and a second chance at life. Yet awareness and understanding of this life-saving treatment remain far too limited. Today, we unite as patients, caregivers, medical professionals, donors, and advocates to change that.

This day is a tribute to everyone touched by the journey:

  • Patients who embody strength and resilience.
  • Caregivers and families who walk every step beside them.
  • Medical professionals whose skill and dedication make new beginnings possible.
  • Organ donors and their families, whose generosity gives the ultimate gift of life.

Together, we honor their courage, compassion, and impact.

We invite you to make an impact today by:

Sharing your story with just one person or your entire community. A simple conversation can inspire understanding, compassion, or even save a life.

Engaging on social media. Visit the social media toolkit for ready-made graphics and share your gratitude or hope using #LTAday.

Join the movement and sign up and stay engaged, explore resources available to you on your journey, and find patient advocacy organization ready to assist you.

This is just the beginning. Each year, we plan to grow Lung Transplant Awareness Day by expanding resources, deepening partnerships, and uniting the entire lung health community with more opportunities for education, connection, and hope.

Thank you for being part of this historic first year. Together, we are building a legacy of awareness that will inspire for years to come.

With gratitude and hope,
The Lung Transplant Foundation Team
