This year is all about sharing your story, no matter how you’re connected to the living donation and transplantation community.

Whether you’re a living donor, recipient, caregiver, healthcare practitioner, or transplant advocate – there’s a little something for everyone!<\/p>\n

The Ajmera Transplant Centre<\/a> and the Canadian Society of Transplantation<\/a> (CST) have partnered on a Canada-wide call for submissions for a Dragons’ Den-style Pitch Competition<\/strong> to improve living donation care, research and education. The top 3 entries will receive $25K each.<\/p>\n
