Celebrate Life 6k Run/Walk
Sunday, October 6, 2024 - St. Louis, MO
Pre-Race Activities: 8:30am
Race Start: 9:30am
Race begins at Forest Park Upper Muny Lot
Join us in honoring donor families and living donors, celebrating new life with recipients, supporting those waiting for a life-saving transplant, and inspiring others to say ‘yes’ to donation.
Due to construction in the park, this year’s race will be a 6K. We look forward to resuming our regular 5K route in 2025.
This year's race will be held on Sunday, October 6th in Forest Park at the Upper Muny Lot. We are excited to raise awareness about organ, tissue, and eye donation. In bringing the St. Louis Transplant Community together we will honor donor families and living donors, celebrate new life with recipients, support those waiting for a life-saving transplant, and inspire others to say yes to donation. Mid-America Transplant is focused on strengthening our communities by not only serving as the link between patients awaiting organ and tissue transplants and those who donate, but also as a community-based resource providing education and bereavement support.
