Canadian Transplant Association

The Canadian Transplant Association was created in 1987 to raise awareness about organ donation and celebrate the success of transplants in saving lives.

We are a registered non-profit organization (Charitable tax No. 13181 5862 RR0001) comprised of transplant recipients, athletes, and volunteers dedicated to promoting organ donation through public advocacy and events including the National Transplant Games and World Transplant Games.

We are also a support network, offering programs to help donors and recipients live full lives after transplantation. We have a Speaker’s Bureau in each region in Canada. Contact us at our web site or toll free number if you have a request.

How Can I Get Involved?

Right now, there are record numbers of people in your community who are on transplant waiting lists. Whether you are one of them, a potential donor, or someone who wants to help, we are always looking for members and volunteers to help us change lives across Canada.   

The easiest way to get involved is to sign your organ donor card! This simple and selfless act could mean the greatest gift for someone who needs help: a second chance.

We also need people to volunteer at our events, help us with publicity, and be active in the community. If you are interested in joining us, or in making a donation, please visit our Membership page or contact us to find out how you can get involved.
