LifeLink Legacy Fund

LifeLink Legacy Fund supports the Foundation's mission by ensuring continued financial stability for a variety of programs. Each year, the generosity of sponsors allows us to reach hundreds of thousands of people regarding the need for organ and tissue donation and the miracle of transplantation. With an annual-based program rather than an events-based program, individual and corporate sponsors may pledge their support at any time. The Year of Giving sponsor benefits begin when a pledge of support is made and continue for one calendar year from that date. We are happy to offer flexible payment options if needed.

Coach Minahan Celebrity Lunch
Click Here to View the Event Flyer

Coach Bill Minahan is a mentor to many and beloved former football coach at Jesuit, Plant and Jefferson High Schools. More than twenty-five years ago, Coach Minahan received a kidney transplant which influenced his life and in turn the lives of many throughout in the Tampa Bay area. Coach Minahan and Martha celebrate the anniversary of his kidney transplant in March and it is our privilege to celebrate his contributions to the Tampa Bay community with this lunch. Please join us for this fun event as we raise awareness of the need for organ and tissue donation in our community and raise funds to provide direct care to patients without insurance benefits.
