UW Oshkosh’s PRSSA chapter is currently involved in preparing their event and awareness campaign for the National Organ Donor Awareness Competition (NODAC).
NODAC, which is sponsored by Rowan University’s PRSSA chapter, is an annual competition held to spread awareness and promote family discussion about organ donation.
This year, UW Oshkosh PRSSA members chose to focus on the liver. This organ helped sparked an array of creative ideas that will prove beneficial in spreading awareness about organ donation to the UW Oshkosh campus community.
On Thursday, April 15, the team will host a dodgeball tournament to promote liver donation to the college campus. This event, the Live’R Die Dodgeball Classic, is being promoted various ways using the clever slogan, Dodge the Ball – Not the Dot, referring to the donation sticker placed on driver licenses’.
The NODAC team has set up a Web site containing more information regarding the tournament and explains tournament rules, outlines prizes and shares key facts about liver donation.
In correlation to organ donation, the team has also decided to highlight a local child’s gift of organ donation at their dodgeball event; Caleb’s story can also be found on their Web site.
Numerous other tactics are being implemented to spread awareness about organ donation and will be seen throughout campus in the upcoming weeks.
For more information about liver donation, the dodgeball tournament or to register, check out the Web site: dodgeballclassic.weebly.com.
Also, if you plan on attending the tournament, please find the Live’R Die Dodgeball Classic event on Facebook and RSVP.
