INTERNATIONAL ORGAN DONATION AWARENESS CAMPAIGN - CANADA, BC-ORGAN DONOR AWARENESS EVENT AT CAFFE DIVANO

Organ Donor Awareness Event

prv0916Nheart02Organ Donor Awareness Event. In support of Klahanie resident, Chris Kirby, who is currently on the waiting list of a heart transplant, we are hosting the BC Transplant Society in an effort to raise awareness about the need for people to sign up as organ donors.

Currently only 17% of British Columbians are registered organ donors which makes the wait for a compatible transplant a long process. Join us that weekend to get more information about organ donation, check to see if you are registered or take the opportunity to get registered.

We’re giving $1 lattes to everyone who signs up!

Visit Caffe Divano for more details.

Here’s the link to the Province article if you want any further details about Chris.
