The mission of the Kentucky Circuit Court Clerks' Trust For Life is to inform, educate, and encourage Kentuckians to register as organ and tissue donors to save the lives of the thousands of residents on the waiting list for transplants. Since the issuance of driver's licenses in Kentucky is the responsibility of the Circuit Clerks, they successfully lobbied for legislation to allow them to request that every resident renewing a driver's license donate $1 in support of organ donation awareness; it overwhelmingly passed and has been in effect since 1992. Over the past 27 years they have raised more than $9 million from Kentuckians, $1 contribution at a time.
Trust For Life has used this money to educate the public through school and church programs, purchasing advertising and public relations campaign, which has significantly increased organ and tissue donation in the Commonwealth. The Circuit Clerks have registered more than 2 million Kentuckians as donors. For more information visit trustforlife.org. Comments | Permalink

The garden behind the Adair County Public Library is growing and blooming. Besides being lovely, it is an official station on the Monarch Butterfly route. - LW Comments | Permalink
