THE GIFT OF LIFE  

 

Anyone of sound mind who is eighteen or over may make an anatomical gift by Will or by signing in the presence of two witnesses a document evidencing the intent to make a gift. This document can be a driver's license or a donor card available from doctors as well as organizations.

To be valid upon death, a donor card need not be delivered to anyone during the donor's lifetime. If you change your mind about making an anatomical gift, and your donor card or other document of gift has not been delivered to a specified donor, just tear it up. If your gift has been made by Will, you must sign an amendment to the Will to revoke the gift.
