Organ Donation Facts:
  • Every 12 minutes another name is added to the national organ transplant waiting list.
  • We don't need a cure - we need to create awareness. 
  • An average of 18 people die each day from the lack of available organs for transplant.
  • 90% of Americans say they support donation, but only 30% know the essential steps to take to be a donor.
  • Almost 100,000 men, women and children in the US are awaiting life-saving organ transplants.
  • It costs nothing to be an organ donor. 

Organ Donation Awareness:

We are always promoting Organ Donation Awareness. Your tax deductible donation helps us with our efforts. 

Earlier this year, we purchased a banner that was hung over Main Street, Melrose:



We had our logo on both sides and the text in the middle was simple:
