The inaugural celebration of National Donate Life Blue & Green Day took place in 2012 when it was founded by the folks at the organization.
The purpose behind the day was to encourage more people to get involved with celebrating and raising awareness about the importance of eye, tissue and organ donation.
The event works in cooperation with National Donate Life Month.
Wear Blue & Green
The most important thing to do in celebrating National Donate Life Blue & Green Day is to get dressed in the morning wearing green and blue. Then, be sure to tell everyone why you’re decked out from head to toe in these colors. In the organization’s logo, the blue stands for the sky, the green stands for the earth and the spiral stands for the circle of life.
Wear a Donate Life T-Shirt
Those who have a special Donate Life t-shirt with the official logo should certainly consider wearing it on this important day. Be sure to be ready with more information about how others at work, school or in the local community can also get involved by becoming organ donors.
