About the Donate Life Coalition of Michigan
The Donate Life Coalition of Michigan was formed in 1993 to promote organ and tissue donation. Its goal is to encourage Michigan residents to accept organ and tissue donation as a fundamental human responsibility. It seeks to accomplish this primarily through public education, legislative and professional education endeavors. The Donate Life Coalition of Michigan is modeled after Donate Life America, which among other things, creates and distributes national advertising campaigns and various awareness efforts such as National Organ and Tissue Donation week. The Donate Life Coalition of Michigan is hard at work in 2010 helping Gift of Life Michigan gain one million new registrants through its Donor Drive 2010.
