About the Series

The Massachusetts General Hospital Transplant Center is committed to providing every patient with quality care and exceptional support throughout their transplant journey.

As such, the living donor team is pleased to present a new virtual education series called “How to Find a Living Kidney Donor” — a monthly series alternating on the fourth Monday or Thursday of every month, which aims to equip kidney recipients and their loved ones with the necessary knowledge, support and tools to find a living donor.

At every virtual event, speakers will provide attendees with information about:

  • Common myths and misconceptions of living kidney donation
  • How to leverage social media and other community outreach forums throughout the living donor process
  • How to find additional resources and learn from each other about living donation
