Local Efforts to Promote Organ Donation in April
April is National Donate Life Month, a vital time to recognize the importance of organ, eye, and tissue donation. With WVU Medicine Berkeley Medical Center and Jefferson Medical Center participating in awareness efforts, residents of towns like Charles Town, Harpers Ferry, and Ranson are urged to consider becoming donors. One individual can save eight lives and enhance many more. The plight of over 100,000 people waiting for transplants highlights this urgent need. This month celebrates existing donors and inspires others to register, ultimately strengthening community health and offering hope to those in need.
