Life Begins with You

Every ten minutes another name is added to the national organ transplant waiting list.

To meet this need, Donate Life America has announced its 2012 organ donor campaign to add 20 million new donors nationwide by the end of the year. Pennsylvania, through Donate Life-PA, will be working to contribute 150,000 new donors to the national goal.

Currently, Pennsylvania has 8,000 people waiting for an organ transplant; however, only 45-percent of the state's licensed drivers are registered. The goal is to increase this registration to 48-percent.
