In June of 2009 Matt Massie went into kidney failure at the age of 23. After 16 months of receiving hemodialysis, Matt was blessed with a kidney transplant from an anonymous donor in October of 2010. To the shock of his family, friends and transplant team alike, the kidney inexplicably failed and Matt has once again found himself undergoing dialysis.

We are continuing to spread word of Matt's need for a kidney transplant. He is currently on the waiting list for a kidney from a deceased donor, but this can take many years.

Please contact the University of Minnesota Fairview Transplant Center Referral line to receive information about becoming a living or paired organ donor:
