Organ donation involves removing organs or tissues from a living, dead, or recently deceased person for transplantation into another person. Organs that can be donated include the lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, intestines, and pancreas, while tissues include the cornea, skin, bone marrow, heart valves, middle ear, and more. In India, around 6,000 people die each day waiting for organ transplants, with a new person added to the waiting list every 13 minutes. Donating organs can save up to 50 lives, yet the need for organs is still huge.
