Boulet family keeps son’s memory through Green Shirt Day

Today is Green Shirt Day in Lethbridge. A day to wear the color that represents the Broncos but now represents organs and tissue donation in Canada. Here in Lethbridge, a young hockey player, Logan Boulet of the Humboldt Broncos, who passed away on April 6, 2018, inspired this noble donation initiative and, by donating his organs, saved the lives of six people. Recently, the City of Lethbridge declared April 7 as Green Shirt Day. Toby Boulet, Logan’s father, tells us that he represents this donation movement, inspired by Logan.

According to Statis Canada less than 25 per cent of people living in Canada are registered donors, yet more are needed.
