"How many of you are registered organ or tissue donors? Anyone? If you&amp;amp;#8217;re on the fence about it, watch this message from organ recipient/Glamour Top 10 College Women honoree Jessica Melore; it will definitely give you something to think about. At 16, Jessica was co-captain of her high school tennis team- and then she suffered a massive heart attack that led to a heart transplant and even a leg amputation due to complications. In 2002, Glamour honored her as a Top Ten College Women Winner for her drive to succeed in the face of all her challenges: she enrolled at Princeton University, interned at Good Morning America, Sesame Street, and New York City&amp;amp;#8217;s Lincoln Center, all while advocating for youth with disabilities. We knew we had picked a winner even then, but she&amp;amp;#8217;s blowing us away today. Today is Jessica&amp;amp;#8217;s 30th birthday, and to celebrate, she&amp;amp;#8217;s working with Donate Life America on their &amp;amp;#8220;20 Million in 2012&amp;amp;#8221: campaign, to increase donor registration in state registries. &amp;amp;#8220;I am so proud to be part of Donate Life America&amp;amp;#8217;s &amp;amp;#8216;20 Million in 2012&amp;amp;#8217; campaign,&amp;amp;#8221; she says. &amp;amp;#8220;Real life stories like mine can inspire people to sign up to be organ, eye and tissue donors, and provide hope to the more than 110,000 men, women and children on the organ transplant waiting list.&amp;amp;#8221; Isn&amp;amp;#8217;t her story amazing? Will you sign up to be an organ donor? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
