Do you know there are more than 3,300 North Carolinians on wait lists for organ transplants right now? As part of Donate Life month in April, you can help save a life by signing up to be an organ donor at your local NCDMV office or online. Registered donors have a small, red heart shown on their driver licenses.

Because of efforts between the DMV and Donate Life North Carolina, the state now has the sixth largest organ donor registry in the country. Last year, 998 North Carolinians received a lifesaving organ transplant.

To join the other 5 million registered organ donors in our state, visit your local DMV office or go to www.DonateLifeNC.org
