Joining the Ohio Donor Registry to become an organ or tissue donor is quite simple. Visiting www.doitnowohio.org/onu is one way. Your BMV is also a common place to sign-up whenever you renew your license. Once registered, donors automatically and legally give consent for donation upon death, for any purposes authorized by law.

So what can be donated?

• Heart
• Liver
• Kidneys

• Tissues which can be donated include:
• Corneas
• Skin

Once registered the details of consent can be modified to include only specified organs and/or tissues (or only specified purposes) according to the needs/wants of the registrant.
