Thinking about a Christmas gift for Alex? Dedicate a rose to him and
support his charity of choice: Donate Life!



In August, the German Alex O'Loughlin Fan Club held a fundraiser
benefiting Donate Life in honor of Alex's birthday. Not only was he
extremely delighted about the support from his fans, he also matched
the total amount of their financial contributions.

On January 1, 2011, Donate Life participates in the famous Rose Parade
in Pasadena, CA, with their float called "Seize the Day!". It will be
decorated with the roses dedicated to individuals who have given,
received, await the gift of life, or have distinguished themselves in
their work for raising organ donation awareness.

We think dedicating a rose would be a great way to honor Alex's
continued work as Donate Life Ambassador and a Christmas gift, we are
sure he will be delighted about.

By the way, the 6th World Day for Organ Donation and Transplantation
will be taking place in New Delhi, India, at the end of November.
Another reason to dedicate a rose in Alex's honor this month!

We hope that fans from all over the world will join us in dedicating a
rose to Alex as a Christmas gift. One rose dedication costs 30
Dollars. There is also an option for you to send a card about your
dedication to Alex's business address. The Donate Life Float website
will send you a digital certificate within 1 - 2 weeks (please make
sure your email address is entered correctly!).

From November 1 until November 28, we will be collecting the names of
everyone who participates. If you are the member of a fan group,
please also tell us the name of the group. If you split the cost of a
rose dedication with other fans, please let us know the names of the
other fans as well.

At the end of November or early December, Sabine will write another
article containing the names of everyone who participated. This
article will be sent to Tenaya Wallace at Donate Life Hollywood.

We can't guarantee that Alex will express his appreciation again in
the form of a Thank You note, but we will try our best to let Alex
know about the support from his fans.

In the screenshot are the instructions in English, German, French and
Spanish about how to fill out the order form for ONE rose dedication.

Emerald, thank you so much for sharing this with us. It's a lovely thought and a chance for fans to be part of something truly inspiring during the upcoming season of giving.

I couldn't put it better myself, Lilly. This is a great opportunity for people to do real good in the world, and express their appreciation for Alex at the same time.

[Emerald]

You guys are more than welcome, and Sabine will do her best to try and make sure that Alex is made aware of what the fans are going to be doing in his honour, for Christmas.

Sabine's write up for the event, including a lovely message of support the Alex O'Loughlin Fans for Donate Life received from the coordinator of the Rose dedications. Thank you to everyone who supported us, or participated.

Sandra Madera, who coordinates the rose dedications for the Donate Life Rose Parade Float is very impressed:

"Who would have thought that a television show would have sparked a culture of donation across the globe? That's exactly what Alex O'Loughlin has been able to do. Even though Three Rivers is no longer in production, Alex's commitment to the cause of organ and tissue donation has inspired his fans from all over the world to raise money and dedicate roses to him on the Donate Life Rose Parade Float. It's moving to read the dedications and to realize that he has inspired his fans in this way."
