The Chain of Life Challenge is a large gathering where everyone in the chain of life comes together to support Chain of Life and its unique education program through which 15–17 year-olds become ambassadors for family discussions about organ and tissue donation.
Every year, on, or near the World Day for Organ and Tissue Transplantation, doctors, nurses, transplant recipients, donor families, teachers, students, elite climbers and public personalities gather at the foot of some fifteen mountains simultaneously, creating a movement that unites all those directly or indirectly affected by organ and tissue donation. The general public is also invited to join in.
This year, we are proud to honour the volunteer police officers from the Canadian Organ and Tissue Donors Association (CODA), who form a vital link in the pre-hospital chain of care. Called upon to transport organs from donors to recipients, they play a crucial role that is relatively unknown to the general public.
