The month honors those who have donated an organ and emphasizes just how many people are waiting for transplants.

Anchors Rocco Vertuccio and Shannan Ferry spoke with Leonard Achan, the CEO and president of LiveOn New York, which facilitates transplants across the state, as well as Sheree Watson, a New Yorker who received a liver transplant, Sunday morning on NY1 about organ donation.
