Meet Jenna! This was her campaign that went viral in South Africa in October 2014, changing the consciousness of a nation.

THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE MAY NOT MAKE IT IF YOU DON’T JOIN THE MOVEMENT.

In October 2014, at the age of nineteen, Jenna launched this video invitation from her sick bed. It was an invitation to the whole nation, asking everyone to her 21st. 

Jenna eventually received the lungs she so desperately needed, but the nation mourned when she passed away in June 2015, aged just twenty. However, thanks to publicity generated by Jenna’s invitation, more than 20 000 new organ donors signed up in just three months. But the nation needs more… many, many more!

Every day there are approximately 4,300 people, many of them young, awaiting life-saving organs.

Sign up as an organ donor today to celebrate Jenna and honour her legacy.

With your help, imagine how many young people we can help “getto21”…. In fact, to any age.

Get Me To 21 Book

Jenna was young, bright, beautiful and articulate. Lead SA's Youth Hero of the Year in 2015, her death was mourned by thousands of people whose lives she had touched. During her short but full life, Jenna and the Lowe family raised much needed awareness around this rare and devastating disease, highlighting the dire need for access to medication and organ donors locally. Although desperately ill, Jenna became the face for organ donation in South Africa through the hugely successful #Get Me To 21 campaign in which she invited all South Africans to attend her 21st birthday celebration by clicking on a link to become an organ donor. Tragically Jenna died three months before reaching her milestone.

Brilliantly written, riveting in all its terrible truth and pain, in this brutally honest memoir Gabi Lowe shares her family's desperate fight to save Jenna’s life. Despite their tragic loss, Get Me To 21 will inspire you to believe that the ability to face even the darkest and most unimaginable lives deep within us all.
