Gift of Life Walk/Run

Posted on by

For various reasons, we’ve sat out this event for the past couple of years. I’m pleased to announce that Zoe’s Heart will be making a comeback at the GOLWR for 2019.

The event takes place at Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls on Saturday, August 17th and features a 1 mile walk, timed 5k run and a timed 10k run. There are family friendly events and vendors at the event as well.

Using the link below, you can make a monetary donation or join the team!

Zoe’s Heart began the day our world changed. My daughter, Zoe, received a heart transplant at just six years old. Six. In the span of childhood milestones and bedtime stories, we learned words like “transplant,” “rejection,” “ICU,” and “donor family.” We learned what it means to wait. To hope. To live in the in-between. This blog is our way of sharing the journey — the beautiful, the terrifying, the exhausting, and the miraculous. Zoe’s Heart exists for two reasons: To keep our family and friends updated as we walk this road. And to advocate fiercely for organ donation — because someone else’s yes saved my daughter’s life. This space is raw. It’s honest. It doesn’t pretend the hard parts don’t exist. But it also refuses to ignore the hope. We believe in celebrating progress, honoring the gift of life, and speaking openly about what transplant families experience behind hospital doors. Zoe is living proof that generosity changes everything. Thank you for being here. Thank you for following her journey. And if you ever find yourself wondering whether organ donation matters — it does. It saved our girl. Welcome to Zoe’s Heart.
