Why donate?
Shared hope for a life free of disease… A legacy that could touch countless others... The opportunity to make a significant contribution to healthcare... These are just a few of the reasons why people choose to donate organs and tissues for scientific research.
After all, how good would you feel if you knew you could play a role in the next major medical breakthrough?
