In honor of April’s National Donate Life Month, the University Police Department – Northern Command has partnered with Nevada Donor Network to host the three “Dogs, Donuts & Donate Life” flag raising and donor registration drive events at local college campuses.
Inspired by the agency’s facility dog, Aspen, and their K-9 officers, the event will feature appearances by several K-9 officers from other local agencies, free donuts for those who attend, and the opportunity to register as an organ, eye, and tissue donor hero.
Each event will begin with a ceremonial flag raising of the Donate Life flag by the University Police Department – Northern Command Honor Guard, followed by the registration drive. Along with first responder facility dogs and K-9 officers, students from health-related organizations will be on hand to share information and Nevada Donor Network will discuss donor registration with attendees.
The first ceremony is on April 8th, beginning at 8:30 a.m. on the University of Nevada, Reno campus at the Joe Crowley Student Union located at 1664 N. Virginia Street.
The next ceremony will be on April 22nd, also beginning at 8:30 a.m., and held on the Western Nevada College Bristlecone Building at 2201 West College Parkway in Carson City.
