Description: Lifebanc is the nonprofit organ and tissue recovery organization for Northeast Ohio. As one of the original seven independent organ procurement organizations in the United States, Lifebanc serves nearly four million people and works with 80 hospitals in 20 counties. We are a member of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), which has been managed by the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) since 1986. We also work closely with local partners, as well as the other Organ Procurement Organizations in the state of Ohio to educate the public and healthcare professionals about the benefits of and need for organ, tissue and eye donations. These organizations include Lifeline of Ohio; LifeCenter and Life Connection of Ohio. Along with serving the public, professional community and donor hospitals, Lifebanc provides life-saving organs to two transplant centers: The Cleveland Clinic and University Hospital Case Medical Center. Recovered tissue is transplanted countless times in hospitals throughout the region. Last year, Lifebanc helped to heal and save more than 25,000 lives. Additionally, it was instrumental in helping to perform the nation''s first near-total face transplant and establishing the world-record for lungs transplanted in a year.
