Valentine's Day is a day of love and what better way of showing you care than by becoming an organ donor and possibly saving a life!

February 14 is also National Organ Donor Day and Edwina Garza with the Texas Organ Sharing Alliance talked all about it on Action 4 Sunrise.

Garza says it is the greatest act of charity to give the gift of life.

Currently there are over 116 on the transplant list and every 12 minutes someone new is added to the list.

For more information call the Texas Organ Sharing Alliance at (956) 367-5663 or email Edwina Garza at egarza@txorgansharing.org.
