Abstract: Donation is the act of giving an organ, tissue, or cells of oneself to another person who needs it with the purpose of improving their state of health. This process involves medical, social, psychological, ethical and economic aspects. The main factors that motivate the population of our country to donate organs are reciprocity, ethics, and morality, while the obstacles to carrying out this donation are the lack of education and awareness on the subject, myths and questions about the safety of the procedures, as well as the Catholic religion and the belief that organ donation can cause the death of the donor.
