Why I want to be a donor...

Brian Belle-Fortune

"Black people are three times more likely to need a kidney transplant but very few of us are on the organ donor register. We should be over-represented as donors, not under-represented. It's important to make the effort to register now, don't put it off for later. I'd like to make a difference after I have died."
