A 14-year-old boy from Morris County, New Jersey, is facing a serious health challenge as his only remaining kidney is failing, and his family is seeking a living kidney donor to help him through a transplant. Thaddeus Giansanti has lived with kidney disease since birth and now needs a transplant as soon as possible to regain his energy and return to a more normal routine. He is a kid who volunteers at school, church, and the community food bank, and his parents note that no family members are matched so far.
Supported by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, the family is encouraging compassionate individuals to learn more about becoming a potential living donor and to explore if they could make a meaningful difference in this bright teen's life.
One generous act could transform his daily life. Share this and help us find a match for Thaddeus.
