CHICAGO TRIBUNE - July 29 - Tinder is partnering with a nonprofit group called Organize, which aims to end the organ donor shortage. A similar campaign between Tinder and the National Health Service was carried out in Britain last year. Starting in September, Tinder users will be able to swipe right and register as an organ donor. Traditionally, the registry for organ donation has been run through state motor vehicle departments, and people can register when getting their driver's license. But that doesn't capture everyone. According to the White House, 95% of Americans support organ donation but only half are registered as donors.
