OFFICER Team 2019-2020
President- Maddy Wang
"I first began the Pink Dot Club in 2018 and it has come so far from then! I am so glad that I made the decision to spread my foundation to school because it helps make students feel more involved and part of a very important community. It is amazing to hear wonderful stories about how transplants have affected people's lives in such a positive light. I cannot wait to see where this club goes!"

Vice President- Kylie Maeda
"Around the same time Maddy asked me to be a part of the Pink Dot club, my grandfather had just been diagnosed with cancer for the second time. The first time was in 2001 and he was fortunate enough to receive a transplant that gave him 17 more years of life, but not everyone is so lucky. It became increasingly important to me to educate students about the benefits of organ donation and the impact it carries. I hold this club and its mission very close to my heart because I’ve seen firsthand how much a transplant can change a life, and for that I’m forever grateful."
