Through running and walking, Organs 'R' Us ('ORU') has generated $25 million of publicity promoting the need for organ donors. Pledge your support for 100,000 Americans (including 15,000 children) waiting for transplants, 18 die each day before a donor is found. Since communicating a desire to donate will allow grieving relatives to make an informed decision, ORU encourages family discussions, not about death, but about offering a lifesaving gift. <p> Awards <br> -- 2007 Silver Medal Jefferson Award from CBS 5, KCBS Radio, San Francisco Chronicle <br> -- 2006 Jefferson Award from CBS 5, KCBS Radio, San Francisco Chronicle <br> -- 2000 First Family Pledge Award from American Society of Transplant Surgeons <br> -- 1997 Community Recognition Award from the California Transplant Donor Network <br> -- 1997 "Most unique group to run the Bay to Breakers (the world's largest footrace) in its 86-year history," per the San Francisco Examiner, May 14, 1997. <br> -- Winner of numerous races (transplant division): The Relay, Bay to Breakers, San Francisco Marathon Relay (Runner's World Magazine, Nov. 1997), San Francisco Marathon, Rock 'n' Roll San Jose Half Marathon and California International Marathon.
