Krewe de Life Mardi Gras Ball
On Saturday, February 8, the Louisiana Organ Procurement Agency (LOPA) celebrated their inaugural Krewe De Life Mardi Gras Ball fundraiser at Bayou Pointe. Guests enjoyed food from several local restaurants and spirits were provided by Marsala Beverage and Landry Vineyard. Katie Collins served as Queen of the Ball. Katie is a transplant recipient and was recently matched with a family member for a kidney transplant. John Clarke Perry was the honorary King of the Ball, represented by his father, Jonathan Perry. At six months old, John Clarke became a transplant hero, donating his liver and heart. New Orleans legend, Gary Brown, provided the music and everyone danced the night away. Proceeds from the event will help raise organ donation awareness, grief support and heart bears.
