We have 2 speakers for this meeting from the Gift of Hope Organ & Tissue Donor Network.   Ms. Julie Gilmartin, the Volunteer Coordinator, and Ms. Ashley Ocasio, the Aftercare Specialist for Donor Family Services will speak about writing to your donor family and also about the Ambassador for Hope Program at the Gift of Hope. 

Julie Gilmartin will explain the Ambassador for Hope Program for the Gift of Hope, and how you can join this program.   Then Ashley Ocasio will explain the process established by the Gift of Hope and local transplant centers so that transplant recipients can send letters to donor families.  They will also offer guidelines about writing that first letter.     They will also be available to answer any questions that you have about writing to your donor family or the volunteer program.
