PRKent Donate Life Ohio team needs help

As Kent State University public relations students are nearing the end of the Do It Now College Challenge, they are doubling their efforts to reach their goal of registering 14,571 new organ donors. To date, the Kent State students have already registered more than 10,000 donors at 69 percent of their goal. Your help is needed to save lives and support the PRKent team.

The challenge is a statewide competition among 13 colleges and universities in Ohio sponsored by Donate Life and the Second Life Trust Fund. Each university participating in the challenge has its own predetermined registration goal, which is based on its surrounding population and is to be reached by May. Learn more
