We've hit the 2 million mark!

Way ahead of schedule, www.donateLIFEcalifornia.org has registered its 2 millionth organ and tissue donor. Thank you! Those of you who have registered and shared your decision with others have helped shorten the wait for over 20,000 Californians on the transplant list.


Dear Fan and Friend,

Throughout my life, I've been blessed by opportunities to be able to reach my goals. Whether a National Championship with my beloved Buckeyes or Rookie of the Year with the Green Bay Packers, I have been rewarded with great success. Certainly my kidney transplant of November 28, 2001 can be added to the list. For me, as for other kidney recipients, it made the difference between a difficult life on dialysis and the normal life I now live.

The John Brockington Foundation, formed in 2002, seeks to narrow the gap between the number of people waiting for organs and the number of organs available. With the help and support of Secretary of Health and Human Services Tommy Thompson, my nephrologist Dr. Fadda, my colleague Rod Roberto, and my donor and wife Diane, we are working to make organ donation the norm, not the exception, in our country.

Thank you for being a visitor to my site and remember how important you are in this battle. By pledging to donate, you can save or improve the lives of up to 50 people. If you do nothing, no one is saved.

Run Hard,
John Brockington
