Did you know that more than 100,000 people are waiting for lifesaving organ transplants?
Even the largest football stadium in the US could not fit the number of patients on the national transplant waiting list
Every 9 minutes there is another person added to the waiting list.
17 people die every day waiting for an organ.
This is my younger brother Connor Jones, he passed away on Nov. 16th, 2020. He was a donor and saved many lives with his donations. Connor donated his heart, liver, pancreas, kidneys, and corneas. He gave 7 people whole new lives and opportunities. He gave 2 people the gift of sight!
"For 2022 Donate Life America was inspired by the vital role that bees play in sustaining life. Bees are a small but powerful life force, working together with dedication, collaboration, and a strong sense of community."
The Donate Life℠ brand statement and logo were developed to place the cause of organ, eye, and tissue donation in the context of life and living, a selfless gift, showing compassion for humanity. Blue, green, and the swirl represent the sky, earth, and circle of life.
Donate Life America uses a lot of colour and statistics for their website and a variety of information. They want people to feel less scared and more informed about everything. This is an important decision we should be making about our lives now.
