“Why bother providing a life-saving lung transplant if you can’t address the complications that result in lung transplants having the worst long-term success of ALL solid organ transplants? Why is nothing being done about this, no medicines, treatments or therapies? I researched these topics as if my life depended upon it, because it actually does.”
—Jeffrey R. Goldstein, lung transplant recipient and founder of the Lung Transplant Foundation
Lung transplant research cannot depend upon the limited funding it receives from government agencies such as the National Institute of Health. We need your help to find life-saving solutions. Through your tax-deductible donation, you do much more than provide someone with a second chance at life—you prolong that life.

- Develop, initiate and support research efforts on issues surrounding lung transplantation
- Find treatments –and ultimately, a solution– for rejection

- Educate physicians about the treatment of rejection in lung transplant recipients
- Develop and deliver innovative awareness campaigns to educate the public
