Ferndale,
Michigan – Credit Union ONE (CUONE) was a sponsor of the 19th Annual
Gift of Life Walk/Run benefiting the Minority Organ Tissue Transplant Education
Program (MOTTEP) on July 30, 2016 at Belle Isle State Park.
For
the fourth consecutive year, CUONE employees participated in the event and
joined MOTTEP in celebrating those who have given the gift of life through
organ and tissue donation. The event included a 5K and a 10K race, as well as a
5K walk. MOTTEP’s Gift of Life Walk/Run is Michigan’s largest event promoting
organ and tissue donation. This year’s event raised more than $69,000.
“The
Life Walk brings together so many and it’s always heartwarming to hear the
experiences of those who have been affected by an organ or tissue donation,”
said John Kozich, Vice President of Community Relations for CUONE. “It’s a
cause we’re proud to support.”
