What is SOD?
Students for Organ Donation is a student-run, non-profit organization dedicated to helping close the gap between the supply and demand for vital organs and tissue. Working within the framework of universities throughout the nation, Students for Organ Donation seeks to promote organ donation and awareness and registration among students, staff, and members of the community.
What do we do?
We are concerned with one primary goal: registering as many individuals as possible for organ and tissue donation. In addition to this, we try to educate potential donors on the importance of informing their loved ones of their decision and how important it is to them that their organs and tissues be donated.
When are the meetings?
Our meetings are on Wednesday nights, once a month. Check the Calendar to see all upcoming meetings and events.
Who are the members?
Our members are undergraduate and graduate students from all sorts of majors. Although many are biology or other science majors, we welcome and encourage students from all majors who have an interest in organ donation to come to a meeting and find out more. We are also actively recruiting graduate students who may have a career/professional interest in organ and tissue donation.
