12,000 people in Germany are waiting ...

… for an organ to save their lives. But every day, eleven patients in Europe die – three of them in Germany –, because they fail to get a transplant.

The problem is that organs are rare the world over – too rare. Although surveys show that two thirds of the German citizens are willing to donate their organs, only 17% of them have an organ donor card.

Everybody with an organ donor card says “Yes” to the life of others. The “Fürs Leben. Für Organspende” event aims to convince every German citizen to say "Yes".

YOU HAVE THE POWER TO DONATE LIFE - BE AN ORGAN DONOR!

On October 4, 2009, we will host a fantastic event to celebrate the “World Day/European Day of Organ Donation”.

Give 12,000 people a chance – join us on October 4, 2009, at the Brandenburg Gate. Bring your friends, acquaintances and family along and find out more!
