Meet the Organ Buddies


How They Came To Be….

     “As a liver transplant recipient, I am always seeking ways to support others in return for receiving the gift of a second chance at life. In 1994 Felice Downing and I wanted to create something “special” to ease the journey for others and add a little ray of sunshine along the way. “Organ Buddies” is the result of a labor of love filled with hope and good wishes. One of the most important reasons for “Organ Buddies” existence is to help promote donor awareness so that everyone in need of a transplant will have the chance to receive the greatest gift of life”

Lee E. Downing
