April is recognized nationwide as Donate Life Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about the life-saving impact of organ, eye, and tissue donation and honoring the generous donors and families who give others a second chance at life.

Across the United States, more than 100,000 people are waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant, and another person is added to the national transplant waiting list about every eight minutes. The need is also felt here in Kansas, where nearly 500 Kansans are currently waiting for an organ transplant, while thousands more are waiting for tissue or corneal donations that could restore their health or sight.

Organ donation has the power to transform lives. One organ donor can save up to eight lives, restore sight through cornea donation, and improve the lives of many others through tissue donation.

During Donate Life Month, Nemaha Valley Community Hospital encourages community members to consider registering as an organ donor and sharing that decision with their families. A simple choice today could one day provide the ultimate gift—the gift of life.
