Richard Needs Your Support!

After extensive medical testing, hard work and determination, Richard has finally been placed on the active kidney transplant list at Oklahoma Transplant Center. He is approved for a new kidney, and excited to receive the telephone call that will save his life. Transplants are lifesaving, but funding this procedure is monumental and very expensive. Even with health insurance, Richard is facing very high out-of-pocket expenses including copays and deductibles, testing fees, insurance premiums, temporary relocation and lodging expenses, a caregiver, the cost of living, and much more. He will also be required to take costly, post-transplant medications to halt rejection that are needed for the rest of his life. These will cost upwards of $10,000 and Richard needs your help as he cannot afford these out-of-pocket fees and transplant expenses on his own.

To help with this financial burden, a fundraising campaign in Richard’s honor has been established with Help Hope Live, a trusted nonprofit organization that has been providing community-based fundraising guidance to patients and their families for more than 30 years. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law, are held by Help Hope Live in the South-Central Kidney Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only.

Thank you ahead of time for your thoughts, prayers and support. Any donation amount, is one step closer to a brighter future for both Richard and his loving family.

Gratefully,

Richard’s wife, children, grandchildren and Community
