C.O.D.A.
is taking the moment to proudly draw up the balance sheet of emergency
transportations made since the beginning, in march 1987...
First thing first, it will be important to examine the statistics
summary from the C.O.D.A.'s operations. Then,
we will consider other important datas concerning the organs that
were transported to the hospitals and medical centers we serve.
Finally, we will show you the financial value of all C.O.D.A.'s
work and present you the fleet composed of eleven (11) "survival
units" stating that C.O.D.A. is well established and here
to stay...
To sum up, it is more than 21 years of emergency transportation
contributing to the survival of hundreds of waiting transplant patients...

For more than 25 years, Canadian Organ Donors Association's mission
is to promote organ donations throuhout Québec and elsewhere
in Canada. As well as the public awareness campaigns, C.O.D.A.
is being possible with the support of police volunteers from many
regions of Québec and financial partners as :
• Quebec -Transplant
• Le Naturiste
• Bell
mobility
...our organisation was able to maintain a fleet of 11 emergency vehicules dedicated to the organ's transportation and medical
support, unveil a cenotaph in 1994 to the memory of the organ
donors, establish La Banque d'Yeux Nancy Desharnais in 1988 and an heliport at Centre hospitalier universitaire de Sherbrooke on june 1990 and
even, pay for some surgical equipments and research projets on
organ transplant.
Everyone can make the difference and become an important partner
of C.O.D.A. by simply signing the Donor's card or by anyother
way like mentionning it on a will, telling your loveones about
it or writing it on a letter. Your support is necessary to help
C.O.D.A. continue its mission by passing on <<
Health in Heritage ! >>
Let me thank you all for your steady contribution.
