Join The GiftWorks Program
Thank you for your interest in the GiftWorks Program. GiftWorks helps recipients share their stories and connect with potential living donors by providing tools, coaching, and community support. Our mission is to make the search for a living donor easier and more effective, while also educating and supporting living donors along the way.
Program Update
We are hopeful that a new session of GiftWorks will be opening soon at the University of Utah Health. Our team is working closely with the transplant center to finalize the start date. Once the program officially opens, you will likely receive an announcement through MyChart from the transplant team. You may also sign up to receive updates when our next session is available.
Connect While You Wait
In the meantime, we encourage you to get involved:
Join our online community on Facebook: GiftWorks Recipients. This private group is a safe place to connect with others on the same journey.
Attend GiftWorks Connect Calls: Every Tuesday at 7:00 PM MST on Zoom, we host open calls for recipients. The link and details are posted weekly in our Facebook group. You are welcome to join us anytime.
