Vermont Sees a 700 Percent Growth in Organ Donor Registry

Since the start of 2012, the Vermont Organ Donor Registry has seen an almost 700 percent increase in registered donors.  

The registry started in 2010 and attributes the growth to several different factors.  First, Facebook spread the word about organ donation with an announcement this year of a partnership with Donate Life America. Second, the registry partnered with the DMV to register when getting an enhanced driver’s license.
