Living Donation: What’s your (research) story?<\/h4>\n

September 12-18, 2021 is Living Donation Week!<\/em><\/h5>\n

Each year, living donor transplants save the lives of hundreds of Canadians awaiting a liver or kidney transplant. Living organ donation offers a shorter pathway to better health with a considerably shorter wait time and better health outcomes than a deceased donor transplant. Yet many Canadians are not aware of living donation. Living Donation Week (#LDW2021<\/strong>) invites the living donor and transplant community to come together to celebrate and spread the word about this life-changing gift, and everyone who makes it possible. It was launched by the Centre for Living Organ Donation<\/a> in 2020 and is held annually, the week after Canadian Labour Day.<\/p>\n<\/div>
