Dispelling Myths About Donation
Fear and misinformation prevent millions from registering. Here are the facts you need to know.
"Doctors won't try to save me if I'm a registered donor."
Medical teams are legally and ethically bound to do everything to save your life. Organ donation only occurs after all life-saving efforts have failed.
"My religion doesn't support organ donation."
Most major religions support organ donation as an act of charity and compassion. Please consult your religious leaders for guidance.
"I'm too old / too sick to donate."
There is no strict age limit. Suitability is determined at the time of donation based on medical criteria, not age alone.
"My family will be burdened financially."
There is no cost to the donor's family for organ donation. All expenses related to the process are covered.
