NJ Sharing Network

At NJ Sharing Network, we have discovered there are so many stories to be told and so much to be shared about organ and tissue donation. This is a place where transplant recipients, donor families, patients waiting for a life-saving transplant, volunteers, NJ Sharing Network staff, community members and advocates can share their insights. To learn more about organ and tissue donation in New Jersey, visit www.NJSharingNetwork.org.

Hooray for the 5K!!!



Hey everyone!  Ms. Pumps here!  I hope you all had fun at NJ Sharing Network's 5th Annual Celebration of Life in New Providence this past weekend... I know I did!  It was great to see so many with connections to organ and tissue donation.  It was also great to meet many of the wonderful volunteers and team participants and hear their inspiring stories. I also loved being part of the “warm-up” on the main stage with Team Martial Arts for Life!  My favorite part of the day was watching all of the amazing runners and walkers who crossed the finish line!  You are all doing your heart a favor by exercising and staying healthy while helping us to spread awareness about organ and tissue donation.
 


Sunday was a beautiful day for NJ Sharing Network's 5th Annual Celebration of Life.  The weather was perfect and it was so great to see so many smiling faces and motivated teams.  With a record-breaking 10,000 attendees, this 5K was the best and biggest yet.  Here at NJ Sharing Network, we'd like to send a big thank you out to our donor families, transplant recipients, living donors, those waiting for a transplant, volunteers, elected officials and hospital, community and corporate sponsors.  All of you made this wonderful day possible.  Here at the office, we are already gearing up for next year!  We hope to see you out and about at community events and again year at our 6th Annual 5K Celebration of Life event in both Paramus and New Providence.




XOXO,

Ms. Pumps
