The Donor App for finding living organ donors
This study is testing a web-based tool called The Donor App. This app helps people on the kidney or liver transplant waiting list share their story on social media (like Facebook) to find a living organ donor. The goal is to see if using social media this way helps more people find potential donors and receive a living donor transplant. You can join if you are at least 18 years old and are on a kidney-only or liver-only transplant waiting list. The study aims to enroll 1000 participants, but its current status is unclear.
