Organ donation is a selfless and life-saving act in which a person donates an organ or tissue to help someone whose organ has failed or is no longer functioning properly.
This can happen either during a person’s lifetime, in the case of certain organs and tissues, or after passing, where multiple lives can be saved through donation. For patients suffering from severe illnesses such as organ failure, a transplant is often their only chance at survival.
Organ donation not only saves lives but can also significantly improve the quality of life for recipients, allowing them to return to their families, careers, and everyday activities.
Organ donation is a selfless and life-saving act. The demand for transplants far outweighs the supply of donated organs — making every registered donor a potential hero.
A single donor can donate up to eight vital organs — each one representing a life saved.
Donated after passing replaces a failing heart in a recipient.
Both lungs can be donated, often helping those with pulmonary disease.

Donation isn’t only about vital organs. Many transplants that are not life-or-death can still profoundly change a person’s path and quality of life.
These transplants are more common than most people realize — touching the lives of athletes, accident survivors, and those recovering from debilitating conditions every single day.
