Charity Disc Golf tournament on October 26th at Bryan Park in Richmond, VA.
Open to all ages and abilities! We will have a shotgun-start round of disc golf, food trucks local to Richmond, putting and driving contests, and prizes! All proceeds benefit the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS).
UNOS is America's non-profit organ transplant management network. They lead the network of US transplant hospitals, organ procurement organizations, and thousands of volunteers who continuously strengthen the transplant system, increase the number of organs recovered and the number of transplants performed, and ensure patients across the nation have equitable access to transplant.
After a year living with end-stage heart failure, I received a heart transplant. To pay forward the exceptional care and support and compassion I received from everyone involved in my heart transplant experience, I'm organizing a charity disc golf tournament with all proceeds benefitting UNOS.
Please bring family and friends to benefit organ donation! We plan to have an organ donor registration table on-site at the venue, and we hope to raise some funds and register some donors for a cause that is quite literally life saving, life changing, and life enriching!
