For anyone interested in the Transplant World Games-

September 24 Webinar: Orientation to Team USA and the 2027 World Transplant Games

Team USA will be doing a series of webinars over the next few months to introduce the 2027 World Transplant Games which will be in August, 2027 in Leuven, Belgium.

The first webinar will be on Thursday, September 24th and will feature updated information from a site visit being done in mid-September.

Leuven, a suburb of Brussels, is an exciting site for the World Games due to its proximity to much of Europe. Brussels is only a two hour train ride from Paris, Amsterdam, and London. Many are planning a European vacation in connection with competing at the Games. Team USA is expected to again field one of the largest teams to participate at the Games. In the 2025 Games in Dresden, over 200 athletes and supporters from all over the U.S. competed, earning over 150 medals. For 2027, an even larger team is anticipated.

To learn more about the World Transplant Games, attend one of the upcoming webinars. Advance registration is necessary. To register, click on the button below.

Check out Steve Murphy's awesome RC car below! He brought his custom design out to our Team AZ get-together yesterday and showed the group some of his creativity. In his recent participation at AZ Turn and Burn Hobbie Shop he raised $500 for Team Arizona!

We’re so grateful for his passion and how he continues to support our community in unique and meaningful ways. Thank you Steve!
