Abstract: Life is an energizing experience. It starts with birth and ends with death. Human spend various stages of life with different illnesses and issues between the birth and death. Donation of an organ is not the same as donating an organ or a portion of an organ for transplantation into another individual improving the quality of life of end-stage organ failure patients. The only choice is organ transplantation way to save lives. As a result, there is a supply-and-demand imbalance for donated organs, resulting in patient death. The number of organ transplants has steadily risen over for the past two decades, and children and adolescents have had outstanding results for their regain of life. That is why importance of organ donation needs to focus on gross route level in the community through health workers.
