Celebrating its 31st Year, the SunTrust Richmond Marathon is a Boston Qualifier!

 

Do your part to help save lives
Donate Life is the official race charity of the SunTrust Richmond Marathon, working to increase organ, eye and tissue donation in Virginia and across the United States. Through educational efforts, Donate Life encourages all Americans to say “yes” to donation and document their decision to become a donor. Today you can make a difference by signing up as an organ and tissue donor. If you are a Virginia resident you can register to be a donor at www.save7lives.org or at the DMV. If you live outside Virginia, please visit www.donatelife.net to find out how to sign up in your state. Together we can help save lives.

For more information on donation
Nearly 100,000 people are currently waiting for a life-saving organ transplant. On average, 18 people die each day waiting for a transplant that doesn’t come in time. Thousands more await needed cornea or tissue transplants. One organ donor can save 7 lives and one tissue donor can help more than 50 people. Join us in saving lives by recording your donation decision today. To learn more about organ and tissue donation and how you can get involved at the local level, visit www.donatelife.net.
