Paper Organs

Paper Organs is an innovative product, following a common funeral custom in Taiwan - "Joss Paper Burning". People believe that creating paper money, houses, clothes, and other paper replicas, then burning them in temples during rituals, allows these items to be sent to the deceased. These paper-made organs will be sent to the donor in the afterlife, allow donors to adhere to the cultural practice of "body must remain intact". Paper Organs breaks the taboo in organ donation, enabling more confident public participation in signing organ donation consent forms.
