Description: Tennessee Donor Services (TDS) is a nonprofit, independent organization authorized by the Federal Government to accept anatomical gifts for transplantation and research. Its mission is to support families in our communities who have sustained the loss of a loved one by providing an opportunity for organ, eye and tissue donation and by facilitating the recovery and transplantation of these gifts to help others in need. In our area (TN & VA), over 4,600 people now wait for an organ transplant, (heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, intestine or pancreas). Annually, our service area has approximately 300 people who donate one or more organs upon death and over 900 who donate corneas and/or tissues annually. The need for transplants far exceeds the number of donations in the area covered by TDS, and across the nation. Currently, in the United States, more than 108,000 people wait for an organ transplant. One third of them will die waiting for a transplant. TDS'' designated service area includes 84 counties in Tennessee, 10 counties in Virginia, 3 counties in Georgia and 1 county in Kentucky.
