In April, the winners of the 2022 Secretary of State’s Organ/Tissue Donor Poster Contest were invited to Secretary of State Jesse White’s office at the Capitol Building in Springfield for a ceremony unveiling the selected posters. Winners received plaques, an Illinois Blue Book and a gift card to Barnes & Noble Bookstore. The overall winner, Zeyneb Efe, received a $100 gift card. The other winners – Anna Worman, Cassandra Medrano and Marissa Estrada – each received $50 gift cards compliments of Donate Life Illinois. The students, with their families and educators, took photos with Secretary White.

The winning poster has been reprinted and distributed to all schools, libraries and Driver Services facilities in Illinois.

The Poster Contest, which is held biennially, is open to all Illinois public and private school students in grades K-12. For more information on the Poster Contest, please contact Lauren Gilbert at 217-558-1322 or via email at lgilbert@ilsos.gov.
