Flag-bearer
Amélie Bazinet
Hello,
Even before beginning the Chain of Life program, I already knew that organ donation was an immensely generous act that could save or improve another person’s life. I was also familiar with the main organs and tissues that can be transplanted. However, this program allowed me to discover the full human complexity behind this act.
The greatest lesson I have learned from the Chain of Life program is the crucial importance of family discussions. It is also essential to know our loved ones’ wishes before having to face such a decision as a family.
School is the ideal place to discuss these sometimes-taboo subjects. As part of our English class, Chain of Life helps us better understand the realities and issues surrounding organ donation and transplantation, while also enabling us to make a personal and informed decision. This education empowers us, as young people, to become agents of change for a more generous and healthier society.
I accepted the role of standard-bearer for the Chain of Life Challenge because I want to highlight the importance of organ donation education. Representing the youth of the Côte-Nord region is a great source of pride for me.
I warmly invite you to join us in large numbers!
