Kentuckians today can begin having an organ donor heart printed on their driver's license like in the bordering states of Ohio, Indiana and others.
“For more than 20 years, the Circuit Clerks of Kentucky have been educating communities about the life-saving mission of organ donation. Thousands of kids and adults are waiting for an organ transplant today. Now, Kentuckians can proudly show their support for these patients in need,” explains Crittenden County Circuit Court Clerk, Melissa Guill.
When renewing a license, deputy clerks ask all Kentuckians if they would like to be a registered organ donor. Everyone who says yes will have the option to have a small, blue heart with the words “Organ Donor” printed on his or her license.
