The Gift of Life Transplant House in Rochester is hoping to raise around 5 thousand dollars this Sunday during its 8th annual 5K run and 2.5K walk.

For those of you who may be unfamiliar with what the Gift of Life house is all about, it was started back in 1984 by a kidney transplant patient at the Mayo Clinic, Ed Pompeian.

Ted Mueller is the run director and he explains what the House is all about.

It's 25 dollars to register at Transplant house run.com

It starts at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday June 4 at the Gift of Life Transplant House at 705 2nd Street in Rochester.  It's a 5K run and 2.5K walk.  Enjoy a great day and help out such a wonderful facility for this area.
