FAST FACT: As a registered organ/tissue donor, you can potentially save more than 25 lives!   Throughout October, college students across the state have been busy helping us save lives by participating in our inaugural "I Am. Are you?" Campus Challenge. Student groups from twenty Illinois colleges and universities have been active in the effort, encouraging fellow students, faculty and residents in their surrounding communities to join the new registry. Thus far, the effort has yielded a combined 1,300 lifesaving registrations! There is still time to help and all Illinois residents can participate. Make a difference by taking a few seconds to remind your friends, family members, co-workers and anyone you know in Illinois about the need to RE-REGISTER today to ensure your wishes are honored!  We recently sat down to talk with 18-year-old Corinne Jakubiec who has been waiting more than two years for a kidney transplant as well as DePaul University freshman, Lacey Wood, who recently received her lifesaving kidney transplant. Be sure to check out both inspiring videos! 
Thanks for helping to save lives!
