Dear Friends, Earlier this year, when COVID19 became a known threat and quarantine was imposed, I felt the range of emotions that you too, probably felt.  I also became a keen observer of the actions and reactions of others.  It was dizzying to take it all in while seeking a personal stance, due to the wide range…

With the addition of a second building, we have increased capacity from 15 to 24 fully-furnished, thoughtfully-prepared apartments, for temporary housing for transplant patients and family members.

The Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT), a worldwide professional advisor organization, has awarded Transplant House of Cleveland a $5,000 grant for the installation of a stair lift, to make Building Two more accessible to patients.
