Meet our Miracle Makers

The COTA Miracle Maker program increases the effectiveness of COTA’s staff by identifying volunteers in almost every state who will work on our behalf, or on behalf of COTA patients.  Through awareness-raising programs, each Miracle Maker will highlight the dire need of organ and tissue donors, and may also assist COTA patient campaigns’ efforts to raise financial support for transplant-related expenses.

Currently, there are more than 100,000 children, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers listed on the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) waiting list.  This includes only "solid tissue" organ transplant needy persons, i.e. those individuals needing a heart, lung, pancreas, kidney, liver, intestine, or a combination of two or more organs.  In addition to this number, more than 30,000 individuals are currently waiting for a "soft tissue" transplant, i.e. bone marrow or cord blood, according to the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP).

Last year, nearly 80 COTA patients were successfully transplanted, which brings the total number of COTA patients transplanted to nearly 900 in the years COTA has served transplant-needy families.  COTA’s unwavering commitment to giving hope and making miracles for each patient family is underscored by more than the 100,000 volunteers and contributors who have generously donated their time and their money to COTA. 

These volunteers and contributors are COTA’s heroes … they are COTA’s Miracle Makers.  Become a COTA Miracle Maker today … click on COTA Miracle Makers for more information.
