Organ donation can save and improve the lives of individuals suffering from organ failure or diseases that affect organ function. Transplants can be life-saving for patients with end-stage organ failure, such as heart, liver, kidney, lung, and pancreas failure. By donating organs, you have the potential to give someone a second chance at life.
