Victoria 5k

Victoria's Run For Life 5K

Oct. 3, 2021
LiveOnNY Event

On February 25, 2019 Victoria McDonnell suffered a fatal brain aneurysm at the age of 26.  She died a hero by being an organ donor. Victoria's last act of kindness was to donate her organs - saving the lives of three people.   Please join us at Clove Lakes Park at Stonehenge, Staten Island, N.Y., on October 3 at 10am for a 5K race in her memory. We hope this run will honor Victoria’s life and bring awareness to the need and importance of the gift of life through organ donation and transplantation.  All proceeds from “Victoria’s Run”  will go to the LiveOnNY Foundation to help organ donor and recipient families. Register: https://bit.ly/3n6k1Y5

National Multiethnic Donor Awareness Month

Aug. 1, 2022
LiveOnNY Event

National Multiethnic Donor Awareness Month takes place each August and is a time dedicated to saving and improving lives in diverse communities by advocating for those awaiting a lifesaving transplant and by creating a positive culture for organ, eye and tissue donation.

Throughout the month, LiveOnNY is asking partners to share diverse stories of transplant recipients and heroic donors to show the transformative impact donation has on people and their families. We encourage all to learn more about organ, eye and tissue donation and to have conversations with their loved ones about their wishes. Together we can use our kindness and generosity to improve health outcomes in our communities. For more information visit: LiveOnNY.org/nmdam
