Intent to donate

Expressing Your Intent to Donate

While we are deeply grateful for every potential donor, when one expresses their interest in Whole Body Donation they are not immediately accepted into the Program; no decisions regarding acceptance are made until after death.

We encourage potential donors to make alternative end of life plans.

How to Express Your Intent to Donate

If you would like to express your intent to donate we encourage you to discuss your choice with your loved ones so that your wishes are known in advance. Once you have done so, you may fill out and return to us the Body Donation Program Registration Form, found under the tab Self-Registration for Potential Donors BDP | Registering for Body Donation | Cumming School of Medicine | University of Calgary (ucalgary.ca). In return you will receive a formal letter stating your wishes to donate as well as two cards that include an individual registration number along with our 24/7 notification of death phone number.
