NKF Serving the Carolinas

Potential living donors and their families will learn about what to expect during the evaluation process, surgery, financial considerations, and hear previous living donors share their stories.

Patients and families will learn about how to connect with a transplant center, the different types of transplants, what to expect during the evaluation process, and hear personal stories from kidney patients who have received a transplant.

Patients and families will receive education, tools and tips to help them write and share their story to find a living kidney donor. You'll also hear kidney patients who received a living donor transplant and living donors share their stories.

Patients and families will learn about what to expect after transplant and how to live well with a new kidney. Topics include information about medications, caring for your physical and emotional health, nutrition and when to reach out to your transplant team for help. You'll also hear transplant recipients share their stories.
