WNYKidneyConnection.org is a site for potential living kidney donors and people in need on the Buffalo waiting list to communicate.  Over the past two years, this type of venue has been the meeting place for donors and recipients across the country.  We hope that this site will help our neighbors and friends make that connection and that more people will be able to give and receive the gift of life.
