Nicholas Green was an American boy who was shot and killed in an attempted moving automobile robbery in Italy in September 29, 1994. When he died his parents asked the hospital if his organs could be donated. At the time organ donation was rare in Italy. News stories about the lives saved by his donated organs increased the awareness and number of donated organs in Italy.
