More donors register at organ donation event

The event was organised by the Vietnam National Coordinating Centre for Human Organ Transplantation under the Ministry of Health and the Buddhism Today Foundation (BTF).

The centre is working with agencies to raise public awareness of the necessity of organ donation for scientific research and to save lives.

In 2018 alone, the number of donors, which included monks, Buddhists followers, and people from all walks of life, was recorded at 1,000 after two registration events. Some families saw three or four members registering at the same time.
