What is Organ Donation?
Organ donation is the process of donating healthy organs and tissues to help patients suffering from organ failure. It can be done during life (living donation) or after death (deceased donation).
A single donor can save up to 8 lives by donating vital organs such as:
Heart
Gives someone a second chance at life by restoring a failing heartbeat.
Kidneys
Helps patients come off dialysis and live a healthier, independent life.
Liver
Saves lives by restoring vital body functions in patients with liver failure.
Lungs
Enables patients to breathe freely again and regain normal life.
Pancreas
Helps control diabetes and improves quality of life significantly.
Eyes (Cornea)
Restores vision and brings light back into someone’s world.
Skin
Helps treat burn victims and supports faster healing and recovery.
Bones
Assists in rebuilding mobility and treating severe bone injuries or conditions.
Who Can Donate?
People of all age groups (medical condition is evaluated at the time of donation)
Individuals can pledge during their lifetime
Final decision is taken with family consent
Almost anyone can become an organ donor, regardless of age, gender, or background.
Important: Even people with certain medical conditions can donate—doctors decide eligibility at the time of donation.
