Considering posters for this kind of topic can either be shocking or gory, I'd say that the [ad campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nobody-reads-ads) for Organ Donation at the AUB Medical Center is pretty tame. However, that's not to say that they're not wonderfully done because each one is tasteful, clever and heartbreaking.

The [dark and ominous tones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kill-them-with-kindness) really tie into the level of severity that surround the [worldwide need for organs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-finger-for-hope). Each one features a headline treatment, one being, "Sometimes you don't have to give up your life to give life to someone else." Be sure to check out the gallery for a closer look at the campaign.
