Donation

I felt really good to have made a contribution to the community. Just walking in to the office made me feel good. The people inside were welcoming. They didn’t hesitate and they came right away to take my donation. It felt even better that I chose a great and big organization like Island Harvest because they are the largest hunger relief organization on Long Island. Between 2013 and 2014, Island Harvest collected and distributed approximately 22 million pounds of food and products, which provided 18 million meals to people in need. I’m hoping with my donation the numbers will be even bigger by the end of this year. I feel as though I helped to make a difference because this organization relies on volunteers, in-kind services, and donated food…

There is presently an organ shortage crisis in the United States. On average, 22 patients die each day…

Overall, to greatly increase the amount of organs available,…

people out there are capable of saving lives, but no one’s stepping up? As many as 18 people die every day waiting for an organ. For many that might not seem like a lot but at this rate, that is almost 6500 deaths each year. But there is a better, effective, and more efficient way to lower these deaths and that is to have automatic organ donation in Canada. Argument #1 Over 1600 Canadians are added to the organ waiting list each year, many have a happy ending but many more don't. Because the…

reasons why an altruistic kidney donor wants to donate is disregarded; for this reason there is lack of information explaining the reasons behind an altruistic donor.

Not only is the transplant list extremely long, but you could help cure someone or help them get off horrific treatments that are their only options until they can receive a transplant. When someone has diabetes, they can receive a transplant from someone who has a viable pancreas that allows them to not…

“I want to be remembered for the life I gave as well as the life I lived.” Organ donations are surprisingly not that common as one of would think. Many people believe that if you put that you are an organ donor, on your license that the paramedics won’t try as hard to save you, since they can save more than one life.
