Most are aware that giving a friend or family the ceremony they deserve requires the forking over of a sizable check — one that could easily cover a car or a year of rent.

According to the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, people between 18 and 34 years old make up almost 30% of deceased organ donations. As college students, it may seem like we’re invincible, but tragedy happens, and it’s important to be prepared.
