  • 07/07/2009 — Gift of Life Michigan (register-of-tartans, record)

The blue and green are taken from the 'donate life' logo which represents the earth meeting the sky (the heavens and the earth), showing the importance of those who have given the gift of life to those on earth. The red represents the heart, both the physical heart and the heart placed on the drivers license to show that one is a donor. The dark green and white represent the Gift of Life Michigan.
