When Iowans register to be organ donors, they are agreeing to help save lives and offering hope to those who wait. Each April during Donate Life Month, hospitals, health care organizations and Iowa Donor Network volunteers encourage Iowans to register to be organ, tissue and eye donors. Although 65 percent of adults are registered donors in Iowa, the number of people in need of transplants outpaces the number of donor organs.
