Calling all Living Donors!
You're Invited to Make History!
Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attempt to break the record for the largest gathering of living donors in history at the Transplant Games of America in Denver, Colorado on June 20, 2026.
The Life's Short Live It Guinness Attempt - an official Guinness World Record challenge will take place to break the standing record of 410 living donors in one place (set in 2018 by Transplant Village Team). You're Invited to Make History & Honor a Legacy.
This challenge is dedicated to the memory of Craig Hostert, two-time kidney recipient, cancer warrior, and co-founder of the Life's Short Live It movement with his wife Kathleen. Craig lived each day with gratitude, joy, and determination, inspiring countless others to embrace life fully. Though Craig passed away in 2024, his spirit lives on in this historic gathering.
