February 2025 Spotlight/Mission Monday
Each month, the Transplant Alliance Foundation highlights an individual who has either given the gift of life through organ donation or is in need of a transplant. In their honor, we proudly display their story in our Bingo Hall and host a special Mission Monday event on the last Monday of the month to raise funds and support their journey.
This month, we bring awareness to organ donation and honor the incredible journey of Chiantia “Tia” Uryce Bond Miller. Tia left us far too soon on January 8, 2025, at just 42 years old, but her impact continues to shine. Born on December 11, 1982, and a proud mother, wife and friend, Tia devoted her life to lifting others up. Even in passing, she performed one final, selfless act—donating her liver, lungs, and kidneys to save multiple lives.
A Legacy of Giving: Special Scholarship Fund
To honor Tia’s incredible spirit, we are establishing a scholarship fund in her name for the 2025-26 academic year at Phoenixville Area High School (In which she was a proud graduate of). Proceeds from the Mission Monday event and any donations received throughout the month, will support students who exemplify Tia’s commitment to community, kindness, and service, ensuring that her legacy continues to inspire future generations.

“Before I take on anything, wheher it’s a chore, a project, or an opportunity, I ask myself – Do I care about this? If the answer is yes, I go all in.” – Keshav Vyas
We are honored to be here at Phoenixville Area High School to present the Chiantia Bond Legacy Award to an extraordinary student, Kashav Vyas ❤️
Chiantia, our February Mission Spotlight, was a true hero whose legacy continues to touch lives. Through her selfless gift of life—donating her liver, kidney, and lungs—she gave others a second chance. In her memory, her family chose to direct the proceeds from February’s Mission Monday to support a Phoenixville Area High School student who exemplifies excellence and promise.
Today, we proudly award Kashav Vyas as the recipient of this meaningful honor. Kashav’s academic achievements, character, and dedication to making a difference reflect the spirit of Chiantia’s life and legacy.
We wish him continued success as he takes the next step in his journey at Carnegie Mellon University. We know he will do great things, and we are proud to support him as he carries forward a legacy of hope, generosity, and purpose.
