Another person is added to the waiting list for organs every 8 minutes. And every day, 16 people die while waiting. Living organ donation makes more organs available to those who need them. UVA Transplant Center #DonateLifeMonth #LivingDonor bit.ly/49kGULJ

“As a living donor, you're in a really unique position to come alongside the recipient and say, I'm going to bear this with you," said Christina Miller, a living organ donor who saved the life of toddler Josie Curvin. UVA Transplant Center #DonateLife bit.ly/3TSpeS4

Living donors give part of their liver or a kidney to someone in need. Baby Josie got a new liver because someone saw her story on Facebook and decided to donate. Learn more about living donation: bit.ly/3Uez8ig UVA Transplant Center #DonateLife #DonateLifeMonth


Living donors can donate a kidney or part of their liver. You'll reduce someone's time on the wait list, which could save their life. Learn more and sign up to be a living donor: bit.ly/4d1m1IG UVA Transplant Center Donate Life Virginia #LivingDonor #DonateLifeMonth



About half of babies with #BiliaryAtresia need a liver transplant. That's where living donors can help. Learn more & sign up to be a living donor: bit.ly/3W1wWvD UVA Transplant Center Donate Life Virginia #DonateLife #DonateLifeMonth

Paired donor exchange occurs when someone steps up to be a donor but is not a match for their recipient. That donor's kidney is then passed onto another pair, and so on and so forth until the chain has gone full circle. UVA Transplant Center #LivingDonor bit.ly/4cYKgXD
