There are plenty of things you can do to help educate those you come into contact with every day. Sign up with the New England Organ Bank to participate in one of the many events scheduled for that week. Kenna Sullivan is coordinating their efforts. Maybe they'll do a human interest story about you, which is a great way to let the public know how well transplantation works. Contact area churches and synagogues and ask them to use their pulpits to explain the church's position on organ donation.
Many people mistakenly believe that organ donation is against their religion.
This is a good way to correct that. Work with the local library to put together a display about organ donation. Wear your green ribbon or any other pin or t-shirt that is likely to catch people's eyes and start a conversation about organ donation. Contact your local cable TV station and have it list the event in their calendars. As with local newspapers, cable TV stations are often looking for human interest stories, so you may even get to be a TV star.
