The official ceremonial portion of the event will run from<\/p>\n<p>10 to 10:30 a.m. Following this, the stamps will be sold and cancelled<\/p>\n<p>until 1 p.m. Participants in the event will be Omaha Mayor Hal Daub, Omaha<\/p>\n<p>City Councilman Subby Anzaldo, Dr. Alan Langnas, chief of transplantation<\/p>\n<p>for UNMC\/NHS, Dr. Beth Reed, director of the UNMC\/NHS Oncology\/Hematology<\/p>\n<p>Special Care Unit, Dr. Byers Shaw, professor and chairman of UNMC&#8217;s Department<\/p>\n<p>of Surgery, EvaJon Sperling, Omaha postmaster, Jerry Tagge, former quarterback<\/p>\n<p>for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, organ, tissue and bone marrow recipients<\/p>\n<p>as well as a family member who donated a loved one&#8217;s organs.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;In addition, several organizations will be represented at the<\/p>\n<p>event including the Nebraska Organ Retrieval System, the Organ and Tissue<\/p>\n<p>Donor Task Force of Nebraska, the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles,<\/p>\n<p>New Hearts, an organization for solid organ transplant recipients, the<\/p>\n<p>American Red Cross and the Lions Eye Bank. Numerous transplant recipients<\/p>\n<p>and organ donor families will attend, and the latest information on organ<\/p>\n<p>and tissue donation will be available.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;The event will coincide with the national unveiling of the stamp<\/p>\n<p>at the U.S. Transplant Games, which will be held Aug. 3 to 8 in Columbus,<\/p>\n<p>Ohio. Omaha is one of nine cities competing to host the U.S. Transplant<\/p>\n<p>Games in 2000. Other cities vying to be host are Austin, Texas, Buffalo,<\/p>\n<p>N.Y., Gainesville, Fla., Houston, New Orleans, Pensacola, Fla., Tampa,<\/p>\n<p>Fla., and Seattle.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;&#8220;The shortage of organ and tissue donors is a critical issue for<\/p>\n<p>the entire country,&#8221; Dr. Langnas said. &#8220;The new stamp will provide a wonderful<\/p>\n<p>mechanism for making people aware of this shortage and perhaps get them<\/p>\n<p>thinking about becoming a donor.&#8221; Dr. Langnas said the national waiting<\/p>\n<p>list for an organ transplant now exceeds 60,000, including more than 400<\/p>\n<p>people in Nebraska.<\/p>\n<p><P>&#8220;We want to encourage people to use the Organ &amp; Tissue Donation<\/p>\n<p>stamp rather than save it,&#8221; Sperling said. &#8220;By using the stamp, people<\/p>\n<p>will be getting the message out on the importance of being an organ and<\/p>\n<p>tissue donor. It&#8217;s truly the ultimate gift one can give  the gift of life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;The stamp features two human forms, one blue and one clear, interlocking<\/p>\n<p>and touching each other&#8217;s heart, as they seemingly join together as one<\/p>\n<p>form. The copy on the stamp reads, &#8220;Organ &amp; Tissue Donation&#8230;Share<\/p>\n<p>your life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;Postal officials will be at UNMC\/NHS to sell sheets of the new<\/p>\n<p>stamp and to provide first-day cancellation, a highly popular activity<\/p>\n<p>for stamp collectors. Sperling will present a framed, enlarged print of<\/p>\n<p>the Organ &amp; Tissue Donation stamp to UNMC\/NHS for permanent display.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the Postal Service will offer information on organ, tissue<\/p>\n<p>and bone marrow donation at each of its stations and branches in Omaha<\/p>\n<p>and will make the same material available in its employee break rooms.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;The special Omaha cancellation depicts The Lied Transplant Center,<\/p>\n<p>a 14-level building that is scheduled to open on the UNMC\/NHS campus early<\/p>\n<p>next year. The cancellation reads &#8220;Be a Hero For Life&#8221; in recognition of<\/p>\n<p>the year-long campaign UNMC and NHS have been waging to create more awareness<\/p>\n<p>in the state for organ, tissue and bone marrow donation. The special cancellation<\/p>\n<p>will only be available for 30 days and only in Omaha.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;Since the &#8220;Be a Hero for Life&#8221; campaign began last September with<\/p>\n<p>a series of advertisements featuring former star University of Nebraska<\/p>\n<p>athletes, UNMC\/NHS have given out more than 13,800 information kits or<\/p>\n<p>brochures on organ and tissue donation. The kits are available by calling<\/p>\n<p>a toll-free number, (800) 95-ORGAN. The campaign also has included organ<\/p>\n<p>and tissue donation presentations by UNMC\/NHS representatives at 30 Omaha<\/p>\n<p>companies and a series of &#8220;Tree of Life&#8221; tree planting ceremonies in several<\/p>\n<p>communities around the state.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;The Lied Transplant Center will serve as a national model for<\/p>\n<p>other transplant programs. The building will feature 44 patient care suites<\/p>\n<p>as well as several floors devoted to transplant research. Patients staying<\/p>\n<p>at the transplant center will be part of an innovative cooperative care<\/p>\n<p>delivery system in which family or friends serve as care partners for the<\/p>\n<p>basic care needs of patients.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;The Lied Transplant Center will house solid organ and bone marrow<\/p>\n<p>transplant patients. Ranking as one the busiest transplant centers in the<\/p>\n<p>country, the UNMC\/NHS solid organ and bone marrow transplant programs achieved<\/p>\n<p>a milestone earlier this year when the 5,000th transplant was performed.<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;UNMC is the only public academic health science center in the<\/p>\n<p>state. More than $27 million in research grants and contracts are awarded<\/p>\n<p>to UNMC scientists annually. In addition, UNMC&#8217;s educational programs are<\/p>\n<p>responsible for training more health professionals practicing in Nebraska<\/p>\n<p>than any other institution.<\/p>\n<p><BR>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><BR>&nbsp;NHS is the partnership of Clarkson Hospital, the oldest hospital<\/p>\n<p>in Nebraska, and University Hospital, the primary teaching facility for<\/p>\n<p>UNMC. NHS operates 26 clinics and health care centers serving Omaha, Plattsmouth,<\/p>\n<p>Gretna and Auburn in Nebraska; Council Bluffs and Shenandoah in Iowa. In<\/p>\n<p>addition, NHS operates more than 350 outpatient clinics in 50 communities<\/p>\n<p>in four states. The combined NHS system serves approximately 25 percent<\/p>\n<p>of the Omaha-area market share.<\/p>\n<p><BR>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;In conjunction with the U.S. Postal Service&#8217;s issuance of a new Organ &amp;
