Meet The Orgamites
The Orgamites characters have come to help children understand the importance of organ donation and transplantation in an easy and fun way. Orgamites believe that it’s what’s inside that counts, literally and metaphorically. In order to look well on the outside, we need to be healthy on the inside.
Captain Marrow is the leader of the Orgamites. He supports them and keeps the group together. His duties include the production of red blood cells, which are necessary in the process of blood formation, as well as the production of white blood cells, which are responsible for our body’s defense.
Captain Marrow
He is the emotional leader of the group. This organ is our body’s conductor. Heart beats loudly with a steady rhythm, pumping blood around our body and allowing our organs to function.
Heart
The inseparable lung twins are always together, always pulsing in and out and bringing oxygen into the blood flow.
Lungs
Most people are born with two of those bean-shaped organs. Kidney is in charge of everything that is to do with water and responsible for keeping the blood clean, so he is always very very busy.
Kidney
Just like in a busy factory, our liver works together with the rest of our organs producing substances that help us digest and absorb our food as well as to store energy.
Liver
He is always thinking and talking about food. He hates being called small, since, when fully outstretched, his length is up to six times the height of a toddler.
Small Bowel
Eye knows everything about everything but is really hiding his insecurities, as he is a vulnerable organ. His job is to observe the world and send messages to the brain.
Eye
Pancreas is the quiet one. She says little but when need be she always supports the team, especially Bowel whom she helps with digestion.
