The Birmingham community has embraced our mission of honoring donors and heralding the return to health for thousands of recipients across the country and as hosts are eager to showcase the beauty, strength, and southern hospitality of this historical area. Attendees of the 2024 Transplant Games, in its 34th year, will enjoy the many parks, museums, and restaurants in the area as they meet old and new friends during this weeklong event.
