Philip Smith Introduces us to The Kidney Transplant Network

Philip Smith, founder of the National African American Gun Association, has – once again – created a space for those in need. His latest venture is a treasured gift to save lives. 

In December, Smith had created The Kidney Transplant Network. The Network is a website dedicated to connecting organ donors with individuals who qualify for an organ transplant – www.kidneytransplantnetwork.org 

“As a someone who has had a loved one experience needing an organ, I understand the importance of connecting organ recipients with donors as fast as possible,” says Philip Smith  

Philip Smith is the founder and president of The Kidney Transplant Network. His personal  connection to this issue inspired him to create this platform. In 2010, Philip’s wife experienced  a decrease in kidney function and urgently needed a donor. Philip faithfully dedicated his  kidney to his wife. Along their journey, Philip had met many others who were going through  similar experiences as his wife. 

After learning about the lengthy process of receiving an organ, a process that can take an  average of three and a half years – Philip concluded that the medical need of an organ  transplant was too time sensitive for the recipient to not be proactive. Thus, the idea of Kidney  Transplant Network was born. 

The Kidney Transplant Network allows users to sign up as either a donor recipient or a donor,  bridging donors with potential organ recipients. To ensure accurate matches the website tailors  members profiles by blood type and other specifications.  

The Kidney Transplant Network can be viewed in multiple languages including Spanish, French,  and Portuguese. The planned roll out connects to Hospitals, Clinics, Dialysis Companies,  Medical Transplant Teams, Non-profits, Private Organizations and Physicians.  

In America, there are over 114,000 people currently on the waiting list to receive an organ  transplant. African Americans are the largest group of minorities in need of an organ transplant. Kidney transplants are the highest needs in African American communities due to higher rates  of diabetes and high blood pressure. The creation of Kidney Transplant Network seeks to lower  the rates of need, not just among African American communities but for everyone. 


About Kidney Transplant Network  

Kidney Transplant Network works around the clock to contact individuals who are interested in  donating an organ to members who need an organ transplant. Through collective efforts with  cutting edge technology Kidney Transplant Network pro-actively seeks potential kidney, liver,  heart, stomach and lung donors and connects them with members who are potential organ  recipients. This is done by directly communicating to that member and working collectively with  their Transplant Team.
