I donate blood regularly. And, my uncle passed recently. He donated his body to OHSU for whatever they needed. Not sure if anything was harvested as he was 80.
Altruism is a big deal.

I used to donate blood on the regular. I'd go down early on Saturday morning, drop off a pint, flirt with the cute nurses and wreck my blood-sugar with juice and cookies. I have gallon pins up to 3. The process - at least in Portland - became onerous because of red tape and I quit going. I should check it out again. Maybe I was meaner back then, and now I would have the patience to do my part...?
