The need for organ donors among communities of color with ARORA

(KATV)-Little Rock — There are more than 100,000 Americans awaiting a life-saving organ transplant and unfortunately, the need disproportionately impacts people of color.

Nearly 60% of those waiting for an organ donation are from multicultural communities.

Myc Scott and Essau Corona from ARORA join Good Afternoon Arkansas to discuss National Multicultural Donor Awareness Month and the need for more organ donors.
