LIFESAVING MITZVAH OPPORTUNITY

A long-time dedicated member of YIS is in urgent need of a kidney donation. The non-profit Renewal organization is running a drive to find him a living kidney donor. Living kidney donation is performed laparoscopically with minimal scarring. Donors usually return to their normal lifestyle within 2-4 weeks post-transplant, with Renewal available to cover lost wages. Donors do not need to take lifelong medication, nor are they restricted with their diet following surgery. 


To learn more about kidney donation, or to see if you are a match, please email:

[email protected] - or call: 718-431-9831 ext. 209. 

Please share this message widely on email, text, WhatsApp and social media. It will, God willing, save someone's life. For more info about Renewal click here: www.renewal.org
