Why a Chair?

Think of your favorite chair or the chair of someone special in your life. When you see that chair, you can’t help but think of the person who sits in it.

This is the goal of the Donate Life Ohio Green Chair Campaign, to bring to mind the many different people affected by organ, eye and tissue donation. Recipients. Donor families. Those waiting for a transplant. And the families of those who died waiting.

The Green Chair is an invitation to all who have been touched by organ, eye and tissue donation

to share their story. It is intended to be an icon of hope and encouragement,

that as the number of registered donors increases, the fewer empty chairs there will be.

Green Chair 24 Hour Sit-In

To promote National Donate Life Month in April, Lifebanc is held a 24 hour sit-in to raise awareness of the urgent need for registered organ, eye and tissue donors.  

Cool Green Chair Facebook App

Donate Life Ohio launched the My Green Chair Facebook Application.  The App is a new and allows you to choose a "Green Chair" as a profile picture.   There are several Green Chair styles to choose from, as well as a message that you can send to Facebook friends encouraging them to spread the word and ensure that fewer chairs go empty.   Check out the new Donate Life Ohio Green Chair application now.  

Don’t let another chair go empty. Register as an organ, eye and tissue donor at DonateLifeOhio.org.
