Jorge Torres Plascencia

Jorge Torres is married and a loving father of two young children. Unfortunately, Jorge needs a kidney transplant and requests the help of his community to make this dream a possibility. Transplants are lifesaving but financially draining.

Three years ago, Jorge was diagnosed with chronic uretero pelvic junction obstruction condition that attacked his kidneys. He is no longer able to support his family on his own and can only work sporadically. He misses being the active man that he used to be. He looks forward to the day that he can run around with his children. Jorge is now completely dependent on dialysis which he undergoes every other day. His only chance to return to good health is by having a kidney transplant.

After many years of helping others, Jorge needs your help. Transplants are lifesaving but financially draining. Even with insurance there are many expenses that must be covered out of pocket. Some of these are co-pays, deductibles and lab fees, in addition, I will be on a life-time of expensive anti-rejection medications. This is where your support is desperately needed

To help offset such expenses, a fundraising campaign in Jorge’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 North Central Kidney Transplant Fund, and are administered by Help Hope Live for transplant-related expenses only.

Thank you for your support, kindness and generosity!
