Green Shirt Day, April 7th, Food For Men Foundation would like to raise nationwide awareness about organ donation in memory of Humboldt Bronco Logan Boulet.
Logan Boulet, a 21-year old defenceman, was one of the Humboldt Broncos players who did not survive the crash. He had registered as an organ donor just weeks before the tragic crash and had spoken to his father about his wishes a year prior. Logan was able to save six people’s lives.
As news spread of Logan’s selfless act, thousands across the country and world were inspired to also register as organ donors.
More than 100,000 Canadians registered to become organ donors in the weeks following the tragedy.This became known as the “Logan Boulet Effect”.To date, this is the largest number of Canadians registering as organ donors due to one event or person.Ninety per cent of Canadians are in support of organ donation. So guys get out there and give someone a second chance. Register yourselves.
