Come out and join the DMA as we hold our AMA Saves Lives event sponsored by Philadelphia Weekly. The AMA( American Marketing Association) Saves Lives project hopes to improve awareness of the need for organ donation and increase the number of registered organ donors in the U.S.
As part of our efforts, the project sponsors along with the assistance of the Collegiate American Marketing Association will study current awareness and knowledge of organ donation among college students and send regular communications to Collegiate AMA members.
It is our hope that through these communications, you and your fellow Collegiate AMA members will get involved in this project and spread the word about organ donation to your campus, family, and other friends. As part of our grassroots marketing efforts we will primarily use social media to communicate with AMA members, making it easy for you to share information with others in your contact network.
The event is from 12-2 pm in the Korman Quad and we will also be giving away free Vitamin Water
