Alaska state law allows a person to make an anatomical gift which is effective upon the applicant's death. A person under the age of 18 may sign up with a parent or guardian as a witness.

Life Alaska is sponsoring the donor registry to help facilitate the donation process and to help honor an individual's donation wishes. It is important that you make your family aware of your wishes, as family always have the final say.
