With 64+ colleges from all over the USA “competing” against one another to register the most donors, there’s lots more #MatchMadness activity to follow in the coming weeks
The Miracle Match Madness Program, which is being organised by our American partners Gift of Life, is well under way.
Michael Silverstein, one of our Campus Ambassador’s at the University of Rochester ran a donor registration event swabbing 186 people over the weekend.
Well done Michael ! That’s a fabulous achievement. And there’s more yet to come.
Almost as amazing is Michael’s novel ‘call to action’ video – see below – which is well worth a watch !
Well done also to Haylee Davis at the University of Wisconsin Hillel Foundation who swabbed 48 others besides. Wonderful.

Gift of Life is recruiting 100 paid student ambassadors to run donor drives within their college communities. Training seminars will take place in August in Boca Raton, Florida.
