Please fill out the form to register as an organ and tissue donor. By registering as a donor you consent to donate your organs and tissues at the time of your death. Organs and tissues will be recovered for the purpose of transplantation, however, in the event a donated organ or tissue cannot be used for transplant, an effort will be made to use the donation for research.
Today, there are more than 100,000 people waiting for a life-saving transplant. Every 8 minutes, a new person is added to the national organ transplant waiting list, and every day an average of 16 people die waiting for a transplant that never comes.
In Mississippi, there are more than 1,300 people waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant. Many of these Mississippians may get a second chance at life due to the generosity of those who designate themselves as organ, eye, and tissue donors.
