A Message From Brandy Burns

Hi everyone! I’m trying to raise a little money for Louisiana Organ Procurement Agency (LOPA). I’m part of a team taking part in this years Trail Run for Life in November. Our team, The Ripple Effect, includes some of the family members of the man whose organ donation saved my dad, as well as members of my family, representing my sister Kelly, who saved several lives when she passed away. I originally set my goal at $250, but I was blessed to reach that goal pretty quickly, so I I’ve decided to up it to $1000. Thanks so much to everyone willing to help!
