Organ Donation

Organ donation is the process of giving one or more organs from a living or deceased person to someone in need of an organ transplant. This can save or improve lives for individuals with organ failure or serious illnesses. Organ donors can offer vital organs like the heart, kidneys, liver, and lungs. In many countries, consent is required, which can be given while alive or through family decisions upon death. Donating organs helps address the shortage of available organs, making it a critical compassionate choice that can greatly enhance the quality of life for recipients.
