Are you too young or too old to be an organ donor? Probably not.


Some people hesitate designating themselves as an organ donor due to health or age.  

Organ donation is more versatile than most people think. For instance, there are no age limitations on who can donate. Whether you can donate depends on your physical condition, not age. Because there are many different types of organ and tissue donations, very few medical conditions will disqualify you.


If you do wish to designate yourself as an organ donor, it’s important to let your family know your wishes. You can designate your decision on your driver’s license, or visit your state donor registry at organdonor.gov.
