YNOTT? Brighten a Child's Day Program

The YNOTT? Brighten a Child's Day program gathers pediatric transplant patients and parents together on a regular basis, as a "Circle of Hope," to share experiences and discuss issues concerning youth transplant candidates and recipients. The program's objective is to educate and emotionally support youth suffering from organ failure through the experiences and testimonies of others who fight organ failure and transplant recipients- those who can raise and address critical issues first-hand.

The YNOTT? Foundation hopes that the YNOTT? Brighten a Child's Day program will inspire and encourage youth to stay motivated on accomplishing goals and attaining dreams, no matter what obstacles they may face; and encourage youth to always follow nurse and doctor recommendations (taking medications properly, monitoring diets, etc.). The program instills a positive outlook on health conditions.

This program entails transplant candidates and recipients promoting organ and tissue donation through inspirational testimonies, often tied to a broader message. The program's objective is to impact lives in a variety of areas, while bringing awareness to organ donation. The optimal goal is to encourage individuals to become registered organ donors. Our educational programs are led by speakers who have been professionally trained, and certified to deliver presentations at various engagements. The speakers intertwine their own inspirational story, adding an emotional connection to the overall message.

The YNOTT YOU? Program provides inspirational and motivational speakers for conferences, schools, meetings, camps and events of all kind. Our professional speakers can address topics such as:

- The Importance of Becoming Organ and Tissue Donors (Facts/Myths and Statistics)
- Living with an Illness (Taking Numerous Medications, Diet and Body Change, etc.)
- Keys to Overcoming Obstacles and Adversity:

The YNOTT? Offer Hope & Assistance Program (YOHA)

YOHA is a scholarship given annually to one transplant patient who will be attending college in the upcoming school year. The program's objective is to support the educational goals of a transplant patient by providing financial assistance for educational expenses. Aid amounts are contingent on available funding. The YNOTT? Foundation is a huge advocate of attaining higher education.
