You are about to take the first step in giving someone the
gift of life!
Donors are usually between 21 & 70 (there are some centers
that DO NOT have an upper age cut off) and must be healthy and
have excellent kidney function.
After you submit your intake form, you will be directed to
the National Kidney Donation Organization. A representative
from The National Kidney Donation Organization will reach out
to set up a video or phone call, to educate you about living
donation and advise you on the next steps should you decide to
proceed. (Please fill out the form below).
It should be noted that the following medical issues usually
rule you out from proceeding to a formal referral/evaluation
with a kidney donor transplant team:
Please let us know on the form the best way to reach out to
you. If by phone-we will email you the number we are calling
from.
Please note that Helping Society Life Connects believes in a
zero-pressure approach. You are free to withdraw at any time
if you feel that kidney donation is not right for you.
Thank you again for taking the time to learn about kidney
donation to help save a child's or adult's life!
