Who is a "donor"?
A donor is a person who gives an organ, tissue, or blood to another person in need, such as those undergoing transplants or needing blood transfers. This can include living donors, who give a part of their organ or tissue while they are alive, or dead donors, who provide organs or tissues after they have died. Donors have a crucial role in treatments and transplants that can save lives or improve health.
