“Huge thanks to the Kidney Search Foundation for providing me with my free business cards & T-shirts. My daughters wear the T-shirts everywhere to spread awareness. We leave the cards at stores, on deli counters, pizza restaurants, etc. We just hand them out to anyone who shows interest. The photo on the cards makes it very easy for potential donors to find my profile page on the Kidney Search Foundation website. The card is an attention grabber.
During the holidays of 2023, we were able to hand out cards with a candy cane attached. It was a great way to start a conversation as well as spread the holiday cheer. As our family says, it takes a CommUNITY to find a living donor! Once again, thank you KSF for the items.”

All I can do is hope my hero is out there and because of the car decal and T-shirt they are inspired to give life so I can go on being a mother to my 5 kids and a wife to my husband.

“I have been on dialysis for almost 4 years. I have polycystic kidney disease, which is genetic, but I am the first known person in my family to get it. I have been searching for a living donor from the beginning and have had two donors fall through.
But just yesterday I had a girl approach me in the supermarket parking lot because she saw the car magnet on the back of my truck. She happens to be my blood type and said she would be glad to see if she can donate to me. So now we will start the process and I will hope that the third time is a charm”.

“Coming from a marketing background, I know how important it is to get the word out to as many audiences as possible about my need for a donor.

Since I put the magnet on my car, several people have inquired about kidney donation.”

- T.A., Providence, Ri
“From my first encounter to now, the Kidney Search Foundation has been my blessing. When they offered to create free promotional t-shirts for me to help make others aware, I was so appreciative. It is not often that total strangers will put forth the time, energy, and willingness to help others.
My husband happily wore the shirt for the first time at Universal Studios in Florida and it helped strike up conversations with strangers and that was the goal! The Kidney Search Foundation are angels on earth. Thank you for continuing to help the kidney population. We are lucky to have you on our team!”
