On Tuesday, February 14th, three of our volunteers with the Dragonfly Transplant Fund visited the UIHC Transplant Center to serve a special brunch to their staff. This includes:
The Dragonfly Transplant Fund was happy to serve more than fifty boxed brunches, catered by the Bread Garden Market. This special meal was to celebrate the UIHC Transplant Center's success in 2022.
"We handed out the {boxed brunches} and I was able to personally talk with at least a dozen of the Transplant Center team members," said Darrin Yuska, Dragonfly Transplant Fund volunteer. "Everyone was so apprecative and we would definitely do this again for them. They deserve it."
Last year alone, there were 115 organ donors and 979 tissue donors registered in Iowa. The total number of organ transplants was 347!!! Our volunteers would like to again congratulate and thank the UIHC Transplant Center team for what they do every single day to make this happen.
