Three Can’t Miss Posts if you’re Considering Living Organ Donation

Jul 10, 2018 | Kristen Quick, Marketing Specialist | @kequick

We talk about living organ donation a lot on here. Actually, we talk about it more than a lot. We talk about it basically all the time because it’s one way we can rally together and make our nation’s organ shortage a little less dire. There are almost 115,000 Americans waiting for an organ transplant. Sadly, many may never get the call saying that an organ – and a second chance at life – has been found. We can make a difference by educating those around us about living organ donation. Living organ donation isn’t for everyone, but it is for some, and wouldn’t be incredible to be part of saving a life?
