Mission Statement

Every day in the United States 19 people die waiting 7-15 years on the government's invitee only national organ transplant waiting list for a deceased organ transplant that will most likely never come; while an additional 253 people die every day needing an organ transplant that were not allowed on the government’s list because they were too poor, too old or too sick to be considered a "Good Candidate for a Transplant". A new patient’s name is added to this national organ transplant waiting list every 13 minutes. The team at MatchingDonors.com has been working hard for the past nine years to make sure that doesn’t happen anymore.
