Sign Up For Life!

Sign Up For Life (signupforlife.ca) is an online registery where Manitobans can record their wishes to be an organ/and or tissue donor after death.

Many people have a donor card, but you should also register online.  A donor card is just a piece of paper that indicates your wish to be a donor.  Because most people keep their cards in their wallets and often do not come to hospitals with the card on them, it may not be there with the information is neede.  This means your decision to donate is only known to the family and friends you've shared it with.  By registering your intent to donate, you ensure that your decision is recorded and can be made available to your loved ones when they need to know.

Organ donation saves and improves the quality of life for thousands of Canadians, like you, every day.  We currently do not have enough donors to meet the needs for transplants.  One person dies while waiting for a transplant ever 36 hours.  Why not give these people a second chance?

Not only does registering your wishes to be an organ and/or tissue donor help someone else, it helps your family as well.  When you register your donation wishes, this information is recorded and stored in a Manitoba ehealth database and will be made available to your family at the right time, ensuring that your donation decision is known and respected.  By making your donation decision today, you relieve your family of the burden to make this decision on your behalf .

Be a hero.  Be an organ and tissue donor.
