2021- A Record year for Saving Lives

organ donors save 206 lives

112 donor families said "yes" to organ donation in 2021. This represented nearly 50% growth since 2018, helping to provide lifesaving transplants to 206 organ recipients. These recipients will forever be grateful to their donor and their donor's family.  

tissue donors enhance over 50,000 lives

750 donor families said "yes" to tissue donation in 2021. This represented over 500% growth since 2018. Because one tissue donor can enhance the lives of up to 75 people through tissue grafts, we project that over 50,000 people will now benefit through healing, restored mobility and eyesight. 

A Community of Heroes

Amidst a continued pandemic, the need for donation was higher than ever. Despite unprecedented daily challenges, the hospitals and communities in New York, Vermont, and Massachusetts continued to meet the need by supporting donation more than ever. Together, we saved more lives through donation & transplant than any other year on record!
