About
The Liver Life Walk is a signature event of the American Liver Foundation (ALF). Providing an inspirational and festive environment, Liver Life Walk events give participants an opportunity to come together and raise awareness and funds in support of the liver community.
Funds raised through the Liver Life Walk benefit the 100 million Americans affected by liver disease through resources, education and support services and help advance our advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill and liver disease research. Together, we are moving closer to a world without liver disease.

Event Chair
LIVEr Champion
Meet the 2024 Houston LIVEr Champion, Reid Gray. Two months after he and his wife Abby got married, he was diagnosed with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) and told that the only known “cure” was a liver transplant. In January 2019, five years after diagnosis, Reid received his gift of life from a Directed Donation while his wife Abby was 21 weeks pregnant with their twins. Since then, Reid and Abby have developed an unbreakable bond with their donor’s parents, whom the twins affectionately refer to as BeBe and Pops. Learn more about Reid.
Medical Chair
Meet the 2024 American Liver Foundation Liver Life Walk Houston Medical Chair Dr. Krupa Mysore. Dr. Mysore has a passion for liver disease patient care and research since her fellowship training at Texas Children’s Hospital. Children with chronic liver disease present unique challenges which inspires Dr. Mysore and team captain Ms. Koohmaraie along with their multi-disciplinary team to manage them holistically to achieve the best outcomes. The resilience and grit of these children with liver disease continue to inspire the team to excel in their pursuits of patient care and liver disease research.
