Jason Ray, Ray of Hope on ESPN


Filed Under Sports News, U.S. News |

Jason Ray was the mascot for the University of North Carolina prior to being hit by a car.  Jason Ray was hit by a car back in March of 2007 where he passed away soon after.  He had been the mascot for UNC for three years before the accident and the tragedy shook up the campus, friends, and family pretty bad.

ESPN is going to air a special on Jason Ray called the Ray of Hope.  It is scheduled to air at 7pm on Tuesday October 16th on the ESPN show called “E:60“. 

Before Jason Ray passed away he had registered to be a organ donor is he was to ever pass away.  With Jason Ray’s decision to do this he has helped more people that he probably ever thought he would.  The amounts of people that have had their lives saved or benefited in a major way include five fathers, four sons, and as many as 75 others have benefited in some way.  This is what makes this such a great news story and it seems like is having a positive impact on his parents because they are able to see there son live on through his organs helping other people’s lives. 

If you want to find out more about Jason Ray and Ray of Hope I strongly recommend watching the special on ESPN, it should be awesome.
