Help Hope Live- Live it up gala 2026

💙 What a wonderful night celebrating an incredible organization and the power of community!

Last night, members of the Transplant Alliance Foundation team, along with many of our amazing volunteers, had the honor of joining our friends and partners at Help Hope Live for their Live It Up! Gala.

It was such a special evening filled with stories, celebration, connection, and a chance to see all that Help Hope Live has accomplished over the past year.

We were also incredibly grateful for the special recognition they gave Transplant Alliance Foundation during the evening. Seeing our own impact shared on the big screen was such a meaningful moment.

In 2026, Transplant Alliance Foundation has:
💚 Helped 43 individuals
💚 Disbursed $91,500 in grants

And over the past five years:
💚 Helped 164 individuals
💚 Disbursed $288,500 across 75 medical centers nationwide

Those numbers represent so much more than statistics. They represent individuals and families navigating incredibly difficult chapters of their lives, and a community that continues to step forward to help.

Help Hope Live Executive Director Kelly Green also shared a beautiful line from the Grateful Dead’s Ripple:

“Reach out your hand, if your cup be empty
If your cup is full, may it be again.”

Such a fitting reminder of the ripple effect that generosity, compassion, partnership, and community can create. 💚💙

And, of course, we absolutely loved getting to meet the adorable Dolly Pawton! 🐾✨

Thank you, Help Hope Live, for including our team and volunteers in such a meaningful evening. We are grateful for your partnership, inspired by the work you continue to do, and proud to stand alongside organizations working to make a difference for families facing medical challenges.
