SERVING TRANSPLANT FAMILIES FOR 15 YEARS
Today, more than 100,000 people in the United States are waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant. For many of them, the journey to a second chance at life requires traveling far from home to access specialized care.
At Gift of Life Howie's House, we welcome transplant patients, living donors, and caregivers from across the country who come to Philadelphia seeking hope, healing, and lifesaving treatment. While medical teams focus on the transplant journey, we provide what families need most outside the hospital: a safe place to stay, nutritious meals, reliable transportation, and a supportive community that understands what they're facing.
As demand for our services continues to grow, so does our commitment to ensuring that no family is turned away because of financial hardship. More transplant patients are traveling to Philadelphia than ever before, and the need for affordable lodging, transportation, meals, and caregiver support remains critical.
That's why we're asking you to help us plant the seeds for the next 15 years.
Your gift today will help ensure that future transplant patients and caregivers continue to find comfort, stability, and hope during one of the most challenging times in their lives. Whether you give $15 in honor of our 15th anniversary, $150 to help support a family's stay, or a gift that is meaningful to you, every contribution helps sustain and strengthen the services families depend on every day.
The first 15 years have shown what is possible when a community comes together around a shared mission. With your support, we can continue growing hope for the thousands of families who will need us in the years ahead.
Thank you for helping us ensure that every family has a place to call home while pursuing a second chance at life.
