Be an organ donor

After her father died while waiting for new lungs and a kidney, a Hamilton teen is trying to raise awareness about the importance of organ donation. While 90% of the population is in favor of donating their organs, less than 20% of Canadians are actually registered to do so.

Roughly 1,600 people in the province are currently waiting for an organ donation, but only 34% of Ontarians are registered organ donors. Every three days, someone in Ontario dies while waiting for an organ transplant.
