Whole Organ Donation

Whole organ donation involves legally and ethically donating a functioning organ from a deceased person, usually after brain death, to someone in need of a transplant. This process saves or significantly improves the recipient’s life by replacing their failed organ (such as the heart, liver, kidneys, or lungs). Donation requires careful medical evaluation and consent, ensuring the donor’s body is respectfully cared for. It is a generous act that can give multiple people a new chance at health and a better quality of life.
