Before April kicks into full swing, Donate Life Pennsylvania will be speaking and stepping across the state to educate minority communities about donation.

The Step Up to Speak Up events will feature step teams from historically African American fraternities and sororities along with spoken word performers sharing their talents around the importance of organ and tissue donation for African Americans.

The event is free and will take place in Philadelphia from 6-8 p.m. on Saturday, March 27 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center.

Step Up to Speak Up is part of the statewide campaign coordinated with the Pennsylvania Department of Health to raise awareness for becoming registered as organ and tissue donors within the African American community. Step Up to Speak Up is an opportunity for student leaders and members of the spoken word community to educate their peers about the significance of organ donor designation.
