(Team Release) April 3, 2015, Jupiter, Florida, Turn Seven Motorsports, LLC (Turn Seven) today announced 17 year-old professional racecar driver, Jason Fichter has signed a partnership agreement with Donate Life America. Fichter and his Turn Seven Motorsports and Donate Life America are partnering to spread the message about the importance of organ, eye and tissue donation. Donate Life America’s stated mission is to drive individuals, organizations and communities to increase the number of designated organ, eye and tissue donors who save and heal lives. There is a personal connection to the cause. Jason Fichter’s grandfather died, awaiting a liver transplant.

National Development Director for Donate Life America, Karen Headley commented, "We are thrilled to have Jason join our community of Donate Life America Supporters. Having ambassadors like Jason spreading the word to new groups is critical to our success in saving more lives. Jason's passion and his willingness to promote donation to his fans will undoubtedly influence more people to register as donors."

More than 123,000 Americans are waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant. Sadly, 21 people die each day because an organ is not donated in time. The solution is more registered donors. Jason’s partnership with Donate Life America is one way he is urging all racing fans to become donors by registering today at donatelife.net.

It didn’t come in time for my grandfather.” He continued, “The great thing about partnering with Donate Life America is that by bringing awareness to their mission, we show people just how easy it really is to save or heal a life.”
