Did you know both of our founders are kidney donors? Sarah and Patty both work hard to raise awareness for living kidney donation.
In 1972, blood donation became an all volunteer bank. Prior to that time, people were paid to donate and giving blood was considered outside the realm of normal behavior. Now giving blood is an ordinary way of helping others have better health.
We need to make kidney donation ordinary. We need to stop labeling donors as heroes and normalize that helping others is part of our role here on Earth.
Just Sayin' 🥰!
Follow https://www.facebook.com/KidneyDonorAthlete starting March 3rd for live vids of our climb up Kilimanjaro where 22 kidney donors plan to show the world what you can do after donation!
