Walk-n-Talk 2025

On Saturday, October 4 @ 10:00am (local time) at 3 national locations, Move for Life Foundation celebrated its 3rd annual 5km Walk-n-Talk event. This walk is dedicated to raising awareness and funds to reduce the wait time for organ transplants. This event is not just a walk but an opportunity to engage in important conversations about organ donation with your family and community.

Canadian Transplant Games Grant

The Move For Life Foundation is looking to support transplant athletes in attending the Canadian Transplant Games in July 2026. The Games are a powerful way to build connection, confidence, and community through sport, while celebrating the gift of life.

The grant is open to any first time tranplant athlete of any skill level, and for any sport. Come join us at the Games!
