1. MICHIGAN DONOR DRIVE A collaborative effort, designed for workplace partnerships, from: Gift of Life Michigan Michigan Health & Hospital Association (MHA) Michigan Secretary of State Michigan Eye-Bank University of Michigan Health System Henry Ford Health System Campbell-Ewald, the nation’s sixth largest agency network, through its association with the University of Michigan Health System.

2. -1 - CAMPAIGN OVERVIEW The concepts for the organ donation support campaign are designed to promote registration among hospital employees throughout Michigan by debunking the myths commonly associated with the subject. These myths include: The idea that one may be too old Fear that a donor may not get life-saving treatment Concern that the wealthy get priority Worries about the integrity of their body for burial That one’s religion may forbid organ donation Research indicates that these concerns must be addressed to really change minds. By making staff feel more comfortable about signing up for organ and tissue donation, and in turn having them encourage family and friends to do so as well, the intent is to increase registration on the Michigan Organ Donor Registry across the state.

3. -2 - HOW TO USE THE TOOLKIT The toolkit materials, which were created by Campbell-Ewald, allow partners to customize the Michigan Donor Drive Campaign to fit their needs and to choose from various levels of participation. The core level of the drive could include the following: A campaign letter and/or e-mail from the CEO or other leadership person to staff Poster(s) and/or Web banners Electronic e-Hearts that spread the organ and tissue donation message From there, partners can choose additional options, including: Classified ads that tout messages such as “Heart Wanted” Donor stickers, cards and pens Most of the toolkit materials can be easily downloaded and used as is, or customized with your organizational logo.

To order stickers, use an order form at the back of this tool kit.

28. -27 - HEART STICKERS Create organ donation “evangelists” by having staff “Show Some Heart” on their ID badges, charts, etc. Staff can demonstrate how many additional friends and family they’ve helped sign-up by “racking up the heart” stickers on their ID badges.

29. -28 - DONOR WALL CARDS Hospital can give staff who sign up to be an organ and tissue donor a recognition card. Cards can be lined-up side-by-side starting in the lobby, stretching all over the hospital to show the widespread participation of the staff.
