Who is the CTA?

The Canadian Transplant Association (CTA), is a 100% volunteer led registered charitable organization founded in 1987. Our community shares a unique bond and includes transplant recipients, candidates on transplant wait lists, donor families, living donors, families, friends, and health care professionals.

What we do

  • Events

    We offer and partner in a range of events, both virtual and across the country. From awareness and advocacy activities to celebrations, fundraisers and transplant support initiatives, we have something for everyone to participate in. We also offer community connection events like online yoga, virtual movie nights and more. Find out what is happening near you!

  • Resources

    One of the great things about the CTA community is the ability to share knowledge with one another, and from our community partners. Whether you are a transplant patient, a prospective donor or a donor family, we believe it is important you have access to the transplant related info you need. Stay tuned for new member-only content coming soon!

  • Canadian Transplant Games

    Every two years the CTA hosts the Canadian Transplant Games where transplant recipients and living donors of all ages compete in a variety of sports and activities. It is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and demonstrate what the gift of life can do. Due to COVID 19, the Games were postponed in 2020 but we are very excited to host the 2024 Games in Ottawa!
