As a community - physically, socially and spiritually - our body’s health is declining because the organs that help us function are defective. We have become inundated with distractions that alter our focus of balance, growth and prosperity. However, being aware of our purpose fosters us to take action to maintain our well-being. It is vital that we revive our immunity as a community to help prevent factors that cause degeneration within our body.
We will be actively participating in initiatives that will cause us to do something to make a difference and help save lives. Visit Project 3:27 - Donate Life for more information and initiative updates.
April is National Organ Donation Awareness Month in America. Operated through the Love Forever Movement outreach program and partnered with Benaiah Ministries, On and On established PROJECT 3:27 - DONATE LIFE; a month long community initiative to bring awareness to organ donation, community health issues and to actively donate resources, time and knowledge to make a difference and help save lives.
Each week the initiative focused on a particular organ in which supporters participated in a ‘Call to Action’ that demonstrated the power of donating life to others.
The initiative ended with a culminating Celebrate Life event to show appreciation for the gift of life.
Actively donating the entire month with a focus on an organ/factor each week, we partnered with Live On NY to continue the Project 3:27 - Donate Life initiative. Participants were admonished to do something to make a difference and help save lives. The culminating call to action was to donate care packages to facilities of transplant recipients to help uplift and encourage their recovery.
The initiative ended with its Celebrate Life concert event.
