AMA Saves Lives

The month of February has been dedicated as an AMASaveslives month. The purpose of AMAsaveslives is to increase awareness for the need for organ donation and also inspire others to become registered organ donors and organ donor advocates.

Sign on to http://amasaveslives.com/ to get involved and show your support. Remember, you don’t have to sign up to be a donor, it’s strictly showing that you support it.

 “Together we can save lives”
