The National Body Donor Program

Gift of Body

Gift of Body donation through National Body Donor Program offers family members the option of donating their loved one's body to science. Donated organs (not for transplant), tissue, and even the whole body may be utilized by many facilities across the country for research or educational purposes. Gifts of Body are placed with academic, private or pharmaceutical research facilities. Some of the research possibilities may include disease investigation, surgical technique improvement, trauma research, orthopedic research, or other research investigations.

Ultimately this gift may improve medical procedures or assist in research projects that will enhance and even save lives. Arrangements for Gift of Body donation are made after a person has passed away.
