        Help Your Team Win in the 2011 “Gift of Life” Challenge Between UK and U of L!

The state rivalry heats up again for the 12th annual “Gift of Life” Challenge as each school competes for the most number of newly registered Kentucky residents on the Kentucky Organ Donor Registry. The winning school receives a trophy prior to tip-off at the  men’s basketball game on Dec. 31 at Rupp Arena.

This competition has the opportunity to help the more than 750 Kentucky patients registered on the United States organ transplant waiting list. Tragically, every 11 minutes another patient is added to the waiting list while 18 people die each day due to the lack of organ donors.

Register online today at www.donatelifeky.org to save lives through organ donation. Then, click on the drop-down box and credit your favorite team by selecting “2011 Gift of Life Challenge – UK or U of L Fan” as your vote to win the challenge!
