             about becoming organ donors.  
Transplant medicine continues to evolve and improve. Organ transplants, once experimental, are now proven cures for people with organ failure. Each day about 60 people receive organ transplants - but another 16 die waiting because not enough organs are available. ODE hopes to help close the gap between those needing transplants and the number of donor organs available by distributing organ donor cards and getting them signed.

You can help! If you are a Wellesley College student and want to join ODE, please email us. Each year we distribute cards, sponsor lectures, and show films. And we always want help, whether it be just putting up posters, helping design them, updating this website - or becoming part of our executive board.

Please visit the below links for more information, or to contact ODE via email.
