Donor Registry
Donation statistics speak volumes about the great need for organs and tissues. Although more than 108,000 individuals currently wait for a lifesaving organ, only 28,462 transplants were performed in 2009.
Visit the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) website for reports on national and/or state organ donation, transplant and waiting time data. Simply log on to www.unos.org and click "Data."
