Cobb campaigns for organ donation

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb is trying to raise awareness of organ donation. The 24-year-old is the public face of a 14-week effort by Froedtert Hospital and Gannett Wisconsin Media to help draw attention to the need for organ donors. According to the Wisconsin Donor Network, more than 2,300 people are on waiting lists for an organ transplant in Wisconsin. There are more than 123,000 nationally. Cobb, who has been a donor since the age of 16, met transplant patients last week during a tour of the hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin.
