National Donate Life Month

April is designated nationally as a time to promote organ, tissue, blood and bone marrow donation awareness. This special month, established by the United States Division of Transplantation, is called National Donate Life Month. Throughout these four weeks, organ, eye and tissue procurement agencies across the United States schedule special events.


National Donate Life Month, April 2009:
SAVE LIVES NEW YORK!


During National Donate Life Month in April 2009, the New York Organ Donor Network is urging all New Yorkers to come together and save lives. The overarching theme for April is “Save Lives New York.”


In 2008, there were only 251 deceased organ donors in the greater New York metropolitan area. Yet on any given day, approximately 7,500 patients await organ transplants in the region.


SAVE LIVES NEW YORK

One organ donor can save up to eight lives.
Isn’t that a great way to celebrate your life?
