DID YOU KNOW?
Transplantation is one of the most remarkable success stories in the history of medicine. But despite continuing advances in medicine and technology, the need for organs and tissue is vastly greater than the number available for transplantation. 

Transplantation gives hope to thousands of people with organ failure and provides many others with active and renewed lives.   Each day there are thousands of men, women and children waiting for a life-saving organ. More than 115,000 men, women and children currently need life-saving organ transplants.   For specific numbers visit unos.org 

Every 10 minutes another name is added to the national organ transplant waiting list.  An average of 18 people die each day from the lack of available organs for transplant.  In 2011, there were 8,127 deceased organ donors and 6,017 living organ donors resulting in 28,535 organ transplants.  Last year, more than 42,000 grafts were made available for eye banks within the United States.  According to research, 98% of all adults have heard about organ donation and 86% have heard of tissue donation.   90% of Americans say they support donation, but on 30% know the essential steps to take to be a donor.  The only way to make a difference is to register as an organ, eye and tissue donor.  Make sure you encourage your family and friends to take action and be a donor.
