Who Are We

Mission

The National Kidney Donation Organization works to support living kidney donors and those who wish to learn more about the living donation process through mentoring, education, community building, and advocacy initiatives.

Vision

The National Kidney Donation Organization envisions a future where those in need of a kidney receive timely access to one, where living kidney donation is normalized, and where all living donors are supported and protected.
