It does mean that giving a charity $100 may only "cost" the donor $80 or so in the long run, since otherwise the donor would have been required to pay taxes on the $100.

The list of living donor organs is shorter because not all organs can be donated while the donor is alive, due to the complexity of the organ and the impact on the donor's health.

Other organs, such as the heart or lungs, are not commonly donated from living donors due to the high risk involved.
