Ellen is Helene Campbell's next Target for organ donation challenge

Metro Ottawa | Joe Lofaro

Ottawa’s Hélène Campbell is at it again with her organ donation awareness campaign from her new home in Toronto, and this time, she’s reaching out to talk show host Ellen DeGeneres to give her a hand.

Last month, the 20-year-old Barrhaven woman lit Twitter on fire, garnering thousands of tweets and retweets which included the terms #BeAnOrganDonor and beadonor.ca along with Bieber’s Twitter handle @justinbieber.

The pop star eventually responded with retweets and a personalized message for Campbell which was shared with his 16.5 million followers.

Other stars such as Rachel McAdams, Howie Mandel, and Rick Mercer also stood behind Campbell by participating in the campaign.
