As many students are immersed in winter term at DePauw University, sophomore Jack Burgeson and junior Matt Kukurugya are focusing their efforts on trying to educate the community about organ donation.
In an effort to raise awareness about the topic of organ donation the pair decided to start an official group, the DePauw Donors, which is recognized by the DePauw student government as well as the Indiana Procurement Organization.
"There are over 100,000 people who need organs," explained Burgeson. "Seven of those people are in Putnam County."
