Do Your Part to Help Save Lives

 

   Donate Life is the proud beneficiary of the SunTrust Richmond Marathon, Half Marathon and NTELOS 8k, working to increase organ and tissue donation. Through educational efforts, we encourage all Americans to say “Yes” to organ and tissue donation and record a donation decision. One organ donor can save 7 lives and one tissue donor can help more than 50 people. Today you can make a difference by signing up as a donor at the DMV, signing a donor card, and talking to your family. Together we can save lives.  Donate Life is a program of the non-profit agencies UNOS and LifeNet and a portion of every race entry fee supports their educational efforts to help save lives through organ and tissue donation.
