Our chapter is hosting the TRIO National Board meeting on Jan 6th and 7th, and members are invited!

The meeting is at Donor Network West headquarters in San Ramon. This is a chance to thank Donor Network West for their life-saving work as our Organ Procurement Organization, and to learn about other TRIO chapters around the country. Come share your ideas. You can make a difference!
