Together We
Swap kidneys, save lives.
We Support Kidney Transplant Success
At kidney transplant support, we know how hard it is to find the right kidney donor when you really need a transplant. Join our community to quickly find a match and move towards a healthier life with our kidney swap program.
How We Are Saving Lives
A kidney swap transplant is a technique that can save a patient’s life when their willing kidney donors are incompatible. This procedure involves the exchange of donors between two or more donor-recipient pairs who are unable to contribute to one another because of medical conditions such as blood type or antibody mismatches.
This novel strategy avoids the lengthy waiting periods frequently connected with conventional transplant lists and greatly raises the likelihood that recipients will get suitable kidneys. By enabling these exchanges, we increase the number of patients who can get transplants and increase the number of successful surgical procedures. It is impossible to overestimate the significance of kidney exchange transplants since they give patients with life-threatening illnesses hope and better health outcomes.
Our Statistic
We are dedicated to growing our community to ensure that no one is left behind. Every patient should have the opportunity to live a healthy life, and our swap program significantly increases the likelihood of receiving a transplant. More donors and receivers can be connected, which raises the likelihood that a transplant will be successful for everyone. Come together with us on this important endeavor to help those in need find healing and hope.
Our Story
Why Kidney Transplant Support Was Created
Our journey at Kidney Transplant Support is not just about building a platform; it’s a personal mission that is a lived experience and a deep desire to serve those in need within our community.
A Personal Journey
Having received two kidney transplants myself, I have firsthand experience with the difficult obstacles and psychological suffering that accompany kidney illness. The road to a transplant in Pakistan is complicated by both cultural and legal limitations: there is no culture of deceased donors, and only family members may receive transplants. These limitations reduce possibilities and increase the misery of several patients who are unable to locate suitable donors.
A New Hope with Swap Transplants
The recent approval of swap transplants by PHOTA (Punjab Human Organ Transplantation Authority) opened a new avenue for patients like us. However, the lack of awareness and accessible platforms to facilitate such exchanges meant that many continued to suffer in silence and wait.
Turning Adversity into Action
Motivated by my own experiences and the urgent need for solutions, I founded Kidney Transplant Support. The goal was to create a lifeline for those feeling helpless in their search for a donor. By leveraging technology and building a supportive community, we aim to connect people for swap transplants, thereby increasing their chances of finding compatible matches quickly and efficiently.
Building Awareness and Community
Our mission extends beyond just facilitating transplants. We’re committed to educating the public about kidney health, the benefits of swap transplants, and navigating the legal and medical pathways. Kidney Transplant Support is a platform of hope, advocacy, and action, striving to bring about a cultural shift towards a more supportive transplant environment in Pakistan.
Join Our Mission
