Story

Since 2008, FUNDANIER has performed a total of 100 kidney transplants, of which 88% are living donor kidneys. In partnership with FUNDANIER, Bridge of Life teammates and volunteers will serve these kidney donors. Our team will provide a continuity of care to patients by returning annually to Guatemala City to offer primary care services. We will provide physical consultations, therapy sessions and diet recommendations to kidney donors and offer training sessions.

Our second objective on this trip will be to provide training to caretakers of PD patients. Parents will receive training on PD procedures, managing complications, areas of contamination, patient & family support, and the path to transplant!
