Help us find Nathan's living kidney donor
Nathan is 13-years-old, an endearing friend to everyone he meets, and a big sports fan. He is also living with Stage 4 chronic kidney disease. We are praying for the living donor who can help give him a healthy future.
The initial NKR screening is private and takes only a few minutes.

Nathan's story
If you've met Nathan, you remember him. He is charming, big-hearted, funny, and always ready to talk sports, movies, or whatever is going on in your life.
Since birth, Nathan has faced significant health and developmental challenges. Years of therapy, appointments, tests, and medications have never dimmed the joy he brings into a room. Now, Stage 4 chronic kidney disease has put another mountain in front of him.
We are searching for a living kidney donor so Nathan can receive a transplant at the right time and, if possible, avoid the toll of dialysis. Somewhere, the person who can help may simply not know it yet.
You might be the one
You do not need to decide today that you will donate. Start with the National Kidney Registry's confidential screening and let the medical professionals determine whether donation could be safe for you.
Even if you are not a direct match for Nathan, paired exchange may still allow your gift to help him receive a compatible kidney.
