"My Religion Won't Allow Me To Donate"

A frequently asked question about organ and tissue donation deals with a conflict between religious beliefs and donation. It’s good to know that all major religions support organ and tissue donation.
This Web site offers a list of many different religions and their stance on donation. Most find donation an act of charity and neighborly love, but if you are concerned it is suggested you talk with your minister, pastor, rabbi or other religious leader.
Organ and tissue donation is not just a faith-based issue. To be able to help others in need of organs or tissues, regardless of faith, is something that all people are able to participate.
