We can Co-host your event with another club to help make it a success! Examples include fraternities, sororities, multicultural clubs, PRSSA – Public Relations Student Society of America, pre-med, nursing, and athletic programs.

We are happy to share Heather Trew's story however if you know of a student, faculty member or a local family that has a connection to transplantation, a “local” story is powerful! This could include someone waiting to receive a transplant or a donor family that is interested in sharing their story. 

Trew friends can provide treats to give out as a “thank you” to those that register, reaffirm their decision, or stop to find out more about being an organ, eye and tissue donor.

Numbers are powerful. Trew friends will integrate donation statistics into your event.

​

• Sound a bell or horn every 10 minutes to represent a person being added to the national organ waiting list

​

• To illustrate the 22 people who die each day waiting for a transplant, advertise your event by posting flyers featuring headshots of 22 students.

​

- OR have 22 people wear t-shirts with a number on it signifying 22 people die each day.

Trew friends has created unique events such as:

• classroom presentations

•  donor registration tabeling events:

    - donuts for donors 

    - lattes for life  

    - donor drives

    - educational

•  competitions between different groups and organizations

​

Give yourself plenty of time to prepare and market your event. Plan to use social media, post flyers around campus, secure a slide on display monitors, and/or reach out to the campus newspaper for publicity. 

​

When planning an event please give Trew friends at least a months notice.
