Leonard Achan, president and CEO of LiveOn NY, says thousands of New Yorkers are waiting every day for an organ transplant and April is National Donate Life Month.

He emphasized the need for more organ donors and said each person could save about five lives after their passing, just by signing up to be a donor.

Achan talked about the Donate Eight Simulation Center and shared how lives are transformed from organ donation, especially those currently living on dialysis.
