National Donor Day – February 14
February 14 is National Donor Day. The need for organs, marrow, and blood is critical. Approximately 130,000 are in need of organ, marrow, blood stem cell, or cord blood transplants; and, every two seconds, someone in the United States needs blood.
Here are a few ways to help:
- Fill out an organ and tissue donation card and register with your State Donor Registry (make sure your family knows you want to be a donor).
- Join the National Registry as a potential donor of marrow and blood stem cells.
- Learn how you can donate your baby's umbilical cord blood stem cells at birth.
