Join Us At Mackenzie Park On August 20th!
Who Will You Run or Walk For?

Join Us In-Person Or Virtually!

LifeGift's 2nd Chance Run honors organ, eye and tissue donors in 109 Texas counties in North, Southeast and West Texas. While celebrating lives saved and offering hope to those still waiting, the event raises awareness of the need for organ, eye and tissue donation across the state.
How Will The Run Work?

On Saturday, August 20th join us at Mackenzie Park where you can run or walk 1 mile or 3.1 miles (5k)!

We recognize the uncertainty about future large events such as the 2nd Chance Run. While we're currently moving forward with plans to be in-person for our event, we will be closely monitoring the situation. Our top priority is the safety and well-being of our participants and community.
We Encourage Participants To Create or Join a Team.

Teams are a great way to honor those who gave, pay tribute to those who received, offer hope to those who continue to wait and remember the lives lost while waiting for the gift of life.

The largest teams (hospital, family & school teams) will be recognized after the race on LifeGift's website and social media platforms and receive the largest team trophy! 

TEAM DISCOUNT: Teams who have 5 or more members will receive a $2.00 refund per member.
Raise Money in Honor of Your Loved One

Please join our efforts to honor heroes and provide more second chances. Your financial gifts will support the race logistics, and any additional funds will help finance our Donor Family Services program, providing more ways for donor families to honor and remember their loved ones.
