Congratulations to the Astellas Ride of a Lifetime 2011 Winners!
The results are in! Five winning essayists have been selected to ride aboard the Donate Life float at the 2011 Rose Parade®. These winners will meet other transplant recipients from around the country, work with the Donate Life team to help build the float, and attend special receptions honoring the transplant community.
Astellas would like to thank all those who submitted essays to the Ride of a Lifetime contest, and again congratulate the five winners who will experience their ride of a lifetime on January 1, 2011. Transplant Experience members can click here to read this year's winning essays.
