Every night, he helps me with my at-home dialysis since my kidneys are unable to clean my blood the way they should. All I want is to keep watching him grow up. Fabian gives me hope as we wait for ‘the call’ letting me know there is a kidney for me.”- Arlett ValenciaWaiting for a lifesaving kidney transplant591Nevadanswaiting for a transplant105,928Americans waiting for a transplant*1,552,192Nevadans registered*As of April 15th (2022), there are 1,496,276 Nevadans in the Nevada State Donor Registry (Source: Statline) and 55,916 Nevadans in the Donate Life National Registry for a total of 1,552,192 registered Nevadans.Make a Difference.Make a ContributionHelp us change the medical landscape in Nevada.

Cliff received the gift of a new heart in 2008 thanks to a heroic donor named Tony. After battling the same congenital heart defect years later, Cliff’s son Collin passed away before he could receive a lifesaving heart transplant. Collin heroically donated his corneas, giving the gift of sight to others in need. Cliff lived every day filled with pure joy and gratitude for life. He was a light to all who knew him and is greatly missed.Christopher RodriguezHEART TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTImagine this, your 15-month-old is diagnosed with something you’ve never heard of before. Christopher Rodriguez was diagnosed with Restrictive Cardiomyopathy in 2008. The only thing that will save him is a stranger saying ‘YES.’ As Christopher was wheeled down what seemed like the longest hospital hallway, his life was changed forever after his heart transplant. All because of a selfless act and gift from another young child’s family.Subscribe to Connect with Us for UpdatesAccreditationsSign Up to Be a DonorOrgan and tissue donation saves lives.
