"Because" - The Story of an Organ Donor

At 21, Amanda Gedraitis, was the youngest non-direct living kidney donor. Now a college student at Illinois State University, this video highlights Amanda's own personal explanation of why she decided to help save another person's life.

Why? Because, organ donation is the right thing to do.

That's great Scott. Have you thought about a 60 second version that could be used as a Public Service Announcement (PSA)? What format is the master on?
