Strengthening organ donation and transplant

Working together: Our nation’s organ donation and transplant system

United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is a nonprofit organization focused on saving lives. UNOS’ portfolio encompasses organ donation and transplant as well as broader public health projects through its work developing new technologies and initiatives, conducting data-driven research and analysis, providing expert consulting services, advocating for patients, and being a leader in bringing communities together to save lives. The federal government has awarded UNOS the contract to manage the nation’s organ donation and transplant system through the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network since 1986.
