Is 'Become An Organ Donor' a good topic to write an exposition on it for English homework... in year 9?

[Wondergirl]

Yes. What would your arguments for it be?

Not so sure yet... do you have any ideas?

Thank you :)

Think about it -- why be an organ donor? What good would come of it, for you, for the receiver of the organ, for the world?

Why Donate?

“I feel, as I'm sure many recipients do, a drive and responsibility to use this phenomenal gift to its fullest; to use it not only to benefit my own life, but the lives of others.”

Because you may save up to 8 lives through organ donation and enhance many others through tissue donation.

Last year alone, organ donors made more than 28,000 transplants possible. Another one million people received cornea and other tissue transplants that helped them recover from trauma, bone damage, spinal injuries, burns, hearing impairment and vision loss.
