A gift of life

The ultimate gift from a person who dies is a donation of vital organs to help those who need them to stay alive.

The ultimate gift from a person who dies is a donation of vital organs to help those who need them to stay alive.

With August declared Organ Donor Month, we encourage people to donate organs such as the heart, kidneys, liver and lungs when they pass on.

Their donation will help thousands of patients, including children who are desperately waiting for help.

The donation of vital organs when we pass away can save the lives of many, some of whom could play a major role in our society in future.

People who pass on have no use of their vital organs.

Let us therefore not deprive the sick from using them to stay alive.

It is the right thing to do.

It is a gift of life.
