If you're an organ donor, you'll do more good than any of those three options once you die, IMO.

Unlikely and irrelevant.
Unlikely: Organ donor is only an option in some circumstances. It's more typical with young people and accidents than elderly. There's no age cut-off, but for example:
1) The organs need to be fresh (e.g. you died in the ER).
2) The organs need to be in good shape (e.g. not sick)
Irrelevant: It doesn't solve the fundamental question of values and ethics. I am against actively taking a life, including my own. I am not against putting my life at risk, especially for a good cause.
