Celebrate a kidneyversary
Every kidney transplant recipient or donor remembers their transplant day. Receiving or giving a kidney can be the best gift, and the anniversary of your transplant is a very special day. Like a birthday, it is a day for celebration, reflection, and gratitude.
A kidneyversary is a fantastic way to mark that special anniversary date and can be celebrated by recipients, donors and loved ones with festivities such as a party, gifts, cards or donations to a charity.
Help us by raising funds so that all kidney transplant recipients and donors can celebrate their kidneyversary too.
