HOW TO BECOME A VITAL VOLUNTEER

We would like to invite you to join our group. We are made up of people waiting for life-saving transplants, those who have already been transplanted, donor family members, living donors, supporters of these groups, and persons who fervently believe in the organ and tissue donation program.

Our objective is to explain organ and tissue donation to the public, and ultimately alleviate the critical shortage of donors. We speak to the media, civic groups, hospitals, schools, health fairs, and others about how this program operates. Many misconceptions have arisen concerning donation and we are proud to enlighten the public about the importance and benefits of this lifesaving program.

Vital Volunteers come in all sizes, shapes and ages. Our meetings are informative, supportive, stimulating and just plain fun! (Yummy food too!) Each one of us will make an effort to meet you personally and welcome you to our group.

The "Gift of Life" has to be one of the greatest gifts one can receive. We hope you will join us, and in doing so, help us to spread the word of this wonderful lifesaving opportunity. For more information please contact Katherine Doolittle at 916.567.1600 / KDoolittle@dcids.org or simply complete the Vital Volunteer Application and submit it online or mail or fax it to: Vital Volunteers Program, Golden State Donor Services, 1760 Creekside Oaks Drive, Suite 220, Sacramento, CA 95833; FAX: 916.567.8300.
