The research, resources, and support for living organ transplants is astounding and growing so quickly!

The Kidney Paired Donation (KPD) program has celebrated their 1,000th kidney transplant through the KPD Program! This has made an enormous difference... patients with an eligible donor who do not match with them can now find a match across Canada, giving two people the gift of life.

Meet Fadia & Winnie, sisters who were part of KPD. Winnie saved her sister's life. Save a life, and leave your mark on the world.

Learn more about the KPD program and it's amazing milestone at www.blood.ca/kpd1000

Canadian Blood Services just announced that the Highly Sensitized Patient (HSP) program has facilitated 1,000 kidney transplants.

The HSP program, which launched in 2013, is a national organ sharing program operated by Canadian Blood Services in collaboration with all provincial donation and transplant programs and organ donation organizations.

‘Highly sensitized’ means that the patients have exceptionally high antibody levels that will cause them to reject a kidney from most donors. This makes it very difficult to find a suitable donor match.
