April is National Donate Life Month, and Friday, April 12 was National Blue & Green Day, when the public is encouraged to wear the official colors of organ donation organizations.

Multiple Pennsylvania government entities and nonprofits are encouraging the state’s licensed drivers to register as organ donors if they haven’t already done so.

Nearly half of driver’s license and ID card holders in Pennsylvania are already registered, while nearly 7,000 Pennsylvanians are awaiting organ transplants.

Pennsylvania residents can add an organ donor designation to their existing identifications by visiting the Pennsylvania DMV’s website and accessing the Organ and Tissue Donation page.
