It is with great sadness we report that Effie Kimp passed away on April 21, 2022.
Family and friends have worked closely with Help Hope Live to fundraise for uninsured medical expenses associated with transplantation. They began their partnership with Help Hope Live because the nonprofit provides both tax-deductibility to the full extent allowed by law and fiscal accountability to contributors.
Effie’s family and friends have been humbled by the outpouring of love from their community. Please know that no additional donations in memory of Effie are needed. But your support has made a measurable difference in their lives.
In loving care and remembrance, thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Yes, I have been quiet for awhile. however very busy. I moved home & I do Peritoneal Dialysis daily right here in my home. I am so grateful.
I have been in & out of Hospitals. I did have my Parathyroid removed. It was causing all kinds of challenges in my body. It took several months to recover from the surgery & to regulate my calcium. I am thrilled to have it gone and feel so much better.
I have had 18 brave, kind, & giving friends offer their kidney, they have all been eliminated. I am looking for a donor , if you're interested, please please call me. 406-370-2641. I will cover your expenses. A gift of LIFE will be sooooo appreciated.
Hugs, Effie
UPDATE: All 13 of my volunteer kidney donors have been eliminated. The reasons were because of age, some smoked, their own health issues, changed their minds, or their blood did not match. My hat goes off to them as heros just the same that they stepped up and offered such an exceptional gift of life. Thank you all so much for your kindness, love, and generosity. A big hug to all of you!
I am onto Plan B: I will get a Port surgerically put in my stomach on December 20,2016. Then take classes to learn about and how to do Peritoneal Dialysis at home. Then I will leave Missoula and go home to do my dialysis. I will let you all know in a couple of months as to how it works and how it is successfully going for me. I will wait till a live kidney comes available from a volunteer donor or one from the National Cadaver Donor List matches me. There are over 100,000 waiting on National List and an average of 6,000 people die each year waiting for a kidney. If anyone out there is interested in volunteering a live kidney, give me a call at 406-370-2641.
I want to thank Linda Osmanson for her generosity & kindness for allowing me to live in her very comfortable home so I am able to do Dialysis at a Clinic in Missoula which is three hours from where I live. I have been with Linda & her kind family for eight months & most likely two more months before I can go home to do Peritoneal Dialysis. Thanks so much Linda! This journey would be so much more challenging without you. A big hug to you!
Thanks again to all my Financial Contributors. A big hug to you!
It is the Holiday Season. Be safe, have fun, and enjoy all who you love, Effie
Hello my Dear Friends & April, I have just returned from Spokane Sacred Heart Hospital in Washington. I was poked, prodded & tested for 2 days. My organs & heart are strong along with my body for the surgery of a Transplant. No one has ever doubted my spirit or desire. I am APPROVED for a kidney transplant! One of my volunteer donors has contacted the Transplant Team to be processed to find out if there is a match already. As soon as there is a match, the Transplant will take place as soon as possible. I thank you all! Because of your kindness, my life is possible. I appreciate and love you.
Hello Family & My Loving Friends, Thank you so much for reaching my first goal that helped me get back on the Active Kidney Transplant List at Spokane Sacred Heart Hospital in the State of Washington. I am waiting for THE call to go & start the process.
I have done all my tests & shots locally. My car is serviced & ready to go. All I have left to do is pack my bags. I am ready to get this Transplant completed and get back to living my Life & enjoying family, friends, & the beauty in Montana. The next goal is to help with after transplant expenses for the rest of my time here on Planet Earth.
THANK YOU to all of my thoughtful and generous donors who have helped me reach my first required fundraising goal of $10,000 to be placed on the active kidney transplant list. Now that I am actively listed for transplant, I am required to raise more money to help with temporary relocation fees for upwards of 6 weeks after my transplant surgery. I will be required to attend follow-up appointments twice per month, and medical testing following my transplant surgery. Anti-rejection medications will be lifelong and over $2000/ month. Raising $50,000 will help with these lifelong out-of-pocket expenses needed for the rest of my life. Thank you ahead of time for your generous and thoughtful tax-deductible donation. Gratefully, Effie Kimp
Thanks to all of you that have contributed to my fund so far. I appreciate & am grateful for all of you. I am gobsmacked at the quick response & the amount in such a short time. I will be going to Spokane Sacred Heart Hospital in Washington for a kidney transplsnt before we all know it. THEN I can go home & continue my life. Love you all, Effie

Willie and I talked to you in Jackson last fall. We were writing a book of 4x4 trails of the area, and I think you even bought one. Hope this campaign works for you and you get the medical care you need. I also had my parathyroid removed back in 2012...so know how that one goes.
