AMA Saves Lives Project
AMA Saves Lives is a two-year, federally-funded project that identifies motivations and barriers to organ donation and, through social media and viral marketing, focuses on the development of a replicable marketing model for increasing organ donor registry enrollment. The project is the most extensive to date, targeting university students and, specifically, those involved in student organizations. Become a donor, or read more about this very important project at www.AMASavesLives.com.
