Fresno State will light up the iconic Shehadey Tower at the Save Mart Center in blue and green in observance of National Donate Life Month, from April 12 through April 30. The tower will display the Donate Life colors to highlight the life-saving impact of organ donation.

April 12 is “Blue and Green Day,” and the public is encouraged to wear the colors to show their support for organ donation.  Donor Network West, the federally designated organ and tissue recovery organization for Central California, Northern California and Northern Nevada, is holding local events and activities to promote donation and the importance of registering as a donor.

Nearly 1,000 people are waiting for a life-saving organ transplant in Fresno County. To register to become a donor, visit donornetworkwest.org or your local DMV.
