Donate Life Month


In partnership with Tennessee Donor Services (TDS), Erlanger implements a small marketing and public relations campaign throughout the month of April to honor those who have given the ultimate gift of life through organ donation and to encourage others to register. As Marketing and Public Relations Specialist, I was the manager of this campaign in 2022.
