Organs for Organs was formed for the purpose of raising awareness of the vital need for organ donors and donations, and to encourage more people to register as organ donors.

Raising organ donorship by even a small percentage is crucial for saving lives and improving the overall health of society. The shortage of organs for transplantation is a pressing issue that has far-reaching consequences for individuals and their families. By raising the level of organ donorship, we can address several key challenges and make a significant impact on the lives of those in need.

Like music, increasing organ donorship fosters a culture of compassion and solidarity. It encourages people to think beyond themselves and consider the impact they can have on the lives of others. Organ donation is a selfless act that reflects a commitment to helping fellow human beings in their time of need. By instilling a sense of community and shared responsibility, we can create a society where individuals are more willing to contribute to the well-being of others, fostering a culture of empathy and support.

Another critical aspect of boosting organ donorship is the positive effect it can have on medical research and advancements. A larger pool of donated organs allows researchers to study different diseases, test new treatments, and improve transplantation techniques. This not only benefits current patients but also contributes to the future development of medical science. The insights gained from organ donation contribute to a deeper understanding of various health conditions, paving the way for more effective treatments and interventions.

Encouraging more people to become organ donors is a collective responsibility that can have a profound and lasting impact on the well-being of countless individuals and the overall fabric

We feel Organs for Organs is positioned to have an impact on increasing the number of donor registrations. It represents a unique way to reach those who believe in the cause, but haven’t yet commited to it. The passion music invokes is an undeniable to reach people that aren’t moved to action by traditional means. Changes are coming to the transplant delivery system. The Biden administration allocated 36 billion dollars to re-organize and modernize the process. In the spring of 2024 OPTN will take over for UNOS as the organization of record. We hope to be able to help amplify these changes and impact participation.
