Donate Life Northwest Lifesavers Breakfast - November 14, 2012

Donate Life Northwest
Lifesavers Breakfast keynote speakers Mia and her mother Mimi McDonald


Join us for the Lifesavers Breakfast


When: November 14, 2012, 7:30am.

Where: Oregon Convention Center, Portland Ballroom, Portland, OR.

Why: This event raises funds for Donate Life Northwest's programs which register organ, eye and tissue donors and save and enhance lives.

How much: There is no cost to attend, but guests will be asked for financial contributions. Breakfast is provided.

Keynote speakers: Mimi McDonald considers herself lucky. When she was born, doctors detected a heart murmur that was later diagnosed as aortic stenosis. After a few surgical repairs, she received a donor heart valve in 2000. Her luck did not end there. Her daughter Mia came into this world with little chance of survival. But a heart transplant saved her life. Today, Mia is a healthy three-year-old with an affinity for strawberry shortcake and Mickey Mouse. Full of energy and life, Mia is adored by her family, friends and the thousands who read about her on her mother’s blog.

Don’t miss as Mimi and Mia share their story of hope and gratitude.
