"Youth for Life" - Remembering Walter Payton
*Brittney Payton (Co-Founder)*
It was not until Walter’s plea for an organ donor that the awareness of this most
precious gift of life hit home with the State of Illinois. As a living testimony to her father,
Brittney was instrumental in initiating the “Youth for Life” Remembering Walter Payton program. She takes every opportunity to speak out on the importance of being an organ donor.
It is necessary to note, that after Walter’s televised plea for donors:
the State of Illinois became the #1 State for Registered Organ Donors.
The Payton family, together with Jesse White, has worked diligently for the State of Illinois to maintain this #1 status for the last four years. The “Youth for Life” program is a tribute to what
the Payton family is all about and the accomplishments they’ve shared. The existence of this
on-going program is not centered on any special person or group. It’s a program that will
offer everyone an opportunity for the continuation of life.
