Why I Got a Tattoo For Organ Donation (And Why It Matters).

Loading player...
Life is the best gift you can give. It’s why TELL (Transplant Education for Living Legacies) helps educate South Africans about organ and tissue donation. TELL was created with heart, for hearts (and other organs).

One of the founders, Fawn Rogers, joins me (Brent Lindeque) in the studio to discuss her first-hand experience, having received a life-saving lung transplant. This not only gave her a second chance at life, but it places her in a unique position to make a difference in the transplant community. Fawn’s experience allows her to identify various barriers to organ transplantation and it is TELL’s mission to solve as many of these obstacles as possible.
