Texas Creates Organ Donor Registration Website

The following is from AP, New Web site launched for organ donor registration, Dallas Morning News, Aug. 7, 2007:

The Texas Department of State Health Services has created a new Web site for Texans to register as organ, tissue and eye donors, the agency said Tuesday.

Information about organ donation and instructions for registering online can be found on the new site, http://www.DonateLifeTexas.org. The site offers more educational information than the old one, a health department spokeswoman said.

“One donor can save or enhance the lives of more than 50 people with gifts of organs, tissues and eyes,” Evelyn Delgado, assistant commissioner for the department’s family and community health services, said in a news release.
