Organ donation is a noble act that can save many lives after death by transplanting donated organs into patients suffering from end-stage organ failure. There are currently many patients in need of organs who are either waiting years for donations or may lose their lives. However, few people are declaring organ donations each year due to lack of awareness. If awareness of organ donation is increased through community events and programs, more people may declare donations which could help save lives through more transplants and advance medical research.

Predictable Future in this Segment if no action is taken:
At one hand People in need of Organ may “ lose life or will keep waiting” and on other hand
people possessing functional organ who are “dyeing / Declared Brain Dead” will lose
opportunity to give life to ‘depriving / needy’ ones.
Future in this segment if Awareness is created:
In many communities during event/program me, if this awareness is created, than there can be
many declarations made which in a way will help the needy ones. Thus, creating more organ
transplantations and save many lives. Also achieve advancement in Modern Medical Science
Researches by donating bodies.
