The Nicholas Effect

Nicholas Green was killed by car bandits in Italy in October of 1994 (see Nicholas' memorial web page). After learning of his story, many thousands of people have been convinced to be donors; this result is called "the Nicholas effect."

"The Nicholas Effect" is also the name of a beautiful video, created by Corporate Productions, about Nicholas Green's life and death, and the amazing results of his parents' decision to donate Nicholas' organs and tissues.

In April 1999, O'Reilly published Nicholas' father's book! Learn more at nicholaseffect.com; also in TransWeb's book listing.

Nicholas' father, Reg Green, and we here at TransWeb, hope that when you finish seeing the video you will discuss organ and tissue donation with your family. You, too, can save lives.
