Organ Donation Saves Lives. Sign Up Today and Help a Friend

Transplantation saves lives, but only if you help. All you need to do is say yes to organ and tissue donation on your donor card and/or driver's license, sign up on your state’s donor registry (if there is one), and discuss your decision with your family.

Each day about 68 people receive an organ transplant, but another 18 people on the waiting list die because not enough organs are available.

Talk to your family members about organ and tissue donation so they know your wishes. Even if you've signed something, your family may be asked to give consent before donation can occur.
