El sábado 27 de agosto se entregó una subvención de $10,000 a la Fundación Gift of Life en honor a Julia Evans, una receptora de corazón y sobreviviente de cáncer, que inspiró a muchos.

Sandy Chekal, empleada de Crum & Forster, una compañía de seguros con más de 2500 empleados en todo el país, se sintió tan inspirada por la historia de Julia que presentó una solicitud de subvención en su honor al Comité de Impacto Caritativo de Crum and Forster, que otorgó los fondos a la Fundación Gift of Life. La Fundación Gift of Life apoya la misión y el trabajo de Gift of Life Michigan y la comunidad de donación y trasplante.   

"Agradecemos a empresas como Crum & Forster por su apoyo a la Fundación Gift of Life", dijo Patrick Wells-O'Brien, vicepresidente de comunicaciones y relaciones externas. “Asociaciones como esta nos permiten transmitir el mensaje acerca de unirnos a la Registro de donantes de órganos de Michigan, en última instancia, salvando vidas como la de Julia con un órgano que salva vidas”.
