The Alliance for Paired Kidney Donation (APKD) is a pioneering 501c3 organization based in Toledo, OH, dedicated to saving lives through living donor kidney transplants. With a focus on innovation and leadership in kidney paired donation, APKD has facilitated over 15,000 kidney donations to date, providing hope and transformative outcomes for patients in need.
APKD's groundbreaking approach utilizes a Nobel prize-winning algorithm developed by Dr. Alvin Roth to match incompatible pairs with other donors, significantly reducing waiting times for transplantation. By offering concierge-level support, donor protection programs, and financial assistance, APKD empowers donors and transplant centers across the US to make a lifesaving impact in the realm of kidney donation.
