The Driver’s License Misconception: Don’t Just Sign it, Register it Online!

Donate Life Vermont
The Vermont state organ and tissue donor registry has increased almost 7000% since it was launched back in November of 2010. Currently, Vermont has about 4-5% of the entire state’s population registered on the official organ and tissue donor registry. Many people have made the choice to donate life and signed the back of their driver’s license, an amazing choice and first step in the process! Now we need them to make their decision to save lives official by joining the state’s only official online registry.

The reason your information is needed in the online registry database versus just signing your driver’s license is because there are times when a signature on the back of your driver’s license can hinder your wishes to donate life.
