Olivia O’Keeffe Trust Fund donation to the Intensive Care Unit

27/08/2024

Olivia O’Keeffe passed away, aged 33, in December 2021 in the Intensive Care Unit in St. Vincent’s University Hospital.

Olivia had been a recipient of two liver transplants; the first of which was when she was aged just two years old.

In an extraordinary act of generosity, Olivia’s family donated €18,000 to support the I.C.U. from the Trust Fund in her name.

On behalf of our patients, we are humbled and most appreciative of this kindness

We feel it is appropriate to include here a quote from Olivia’s Mum, Katie, “Organ Transplants would not be possible without  the generosity of the donors & their families, and to them, we are eternally grateful”.
