Faites Passer le Message.

Windsor-Essex Gift of Life Association is committed to increasing the number of registered organ and tissue donors through awareness, education, media outreach and transplant community support. Every three days someone dies in Ontario because the life-saving organ transplant they need is not available, yet just over 30% of Ontarians have registered their consent to be a donor. There are 1,500 people in our province waiting for organ transplants and the thousands more waiting for tissue transplants. Most people would accept an organ transplant if they needed one, so why have so few registered their consent to donate? Our organization is committed to changing these statistics and increasing education. We're asking our community to register their consent for organ and tissue donation – it can be done online in just two minutes. We're also asking them to ask their friends and family to register as well.
