Facebook is constantly making changes to it's settings and format. Now, Facebook will be adding a change that they hope will persuade public opinion about organ donations and transplants. On a person's Facebook page they will be able to post whether or not they are an organ donor. Facebook's hopes are that when a person sees their family members or friends becoming organ donors, they will become one as well. A new section will be created on a person's page about biographical information, which is where the organ donation status will be displayed. Facebook's goal is to lower the amount of people waiting for an organ transplant by increasing the number of donors. Read more about this at:
