Testimonials from Off The List Families who are “off the list” and on to living!

Amy Kindt

“I was overwhelmed with everything that was going on until I heard about Off The List. My husband reached out to Off The List and they helped us create a game plan to find a living donor. They helped us navigate the highs and lows of the kidney transplant journey and kept us focused on the end result — getting “off the list.” Fortunately, Micaela, who lives in the community saw our yard signs, car bumper decals, and banner every time she was out and about. I feel very blessed that she stepped forward and made a life altering decision to become a living donor. I am beyond grateful and can’t express how thankful I am for Off The List and all the work they do for so many people to help them get OFF THE LIST!”

“We are forever grateful to Off The List for providing support and a path for us on the journey to our 8 year old son’s kidney transplant. When we began the search for a living donor, Off The List gave us encouragement and ideas about how to begin. We were able to move forward with confidence and hope because we had Off The List in our corner. They understand what individuals on the kidney transplant list are going through, and their tools and resources were a huge help to us. I love telling other “kidney families” about Off The List!”

“I worked with the team at Off the List™ for over a year. They helped me create a brand that resulted in the best possible outcome…a living donor who saved my life. I am forever grateful for Off The List.”

"Although I was only on dialysis for 18 months, it seemed much longer. I spent countless hours seated in the chair with my feet propped up and 16-gauge needles in my arm. Now, my thoughts are on mini vacations and travel. The simplest things I took for granted now have major importance. There is so much I want to teach and show my grandchildren. I want to be a part of their lives and let them know how much they mean to me. This new life has been made possible because of the kidney transplant I received and I thank Off The List for making it possible. Off The List has a program that works. Their program is divided into several steps that walks an individual through the process of sharing their story. I've been given a second chance at life because of the kidney transplant I received. I’ll always be grateful to this great organization and the support I received from them."

"Finding out you need a kidney transplant is a very scary moment in one’s life.The team at Off The List emphasized the importance of having a plan to follow and having a donor champion to help get the word out. Having a comprehensive marketing plan to search for a living donor was absolutely key in spreading the word throughout our community that I needed a kidney. Off The List helped us create our social media page, car bumper decals, mailers, yard signs, and even arranged an interview on television to help us share my story. I'm so grateful that I received a second chance at life because of a selfless living donor. If you want to increase your chances of finding a donor dramatically –please contact Off The List immediately."

"When I started on this journey to find a living donor, I struggled to know what to do. Off The List has a robust communication strategy arranged in a checklist form that made it easy for me to follow and be successful in sharing my story. I’m grateful that Off The List showed me the way and am convinced that the tools and resources Off The List provided were instrumental in helping me find my donor. Just a few months post-transplant, I was able to hike out to Buzzard Roost Rock in the Edge of Appalachian Nature Preserve. I'm so grateful to Lindsay for her bravery, compassion, and gift of life to me, a complete stranger."

"I was on dialysis for 3 years and had to be hooked up to a machine 12 hours every night of the week. I never considered living kidney donation because I was concerned it would put someone else's life at risk. I was referred to Off The List and they educated me on the truths of living kidney donation and gave me the tools to share my story. They are the reason that I found a donor and was given the gift of time. I owe all our success to Off The List and their convincing argument concerning living donors, they made a difference and I am forever grateful."
