Project Donor estimates that 90% of individuals interested in kidney donation don’t make it through the process. The goal is to bring that number down by reaching potential donors who miss donation BMI cutoffs by five to 30 pounds, or because they actively smoke cigarettes.
Project Donor provides either free smoking cessation products or free access to Noom, Weight Watchers, Future Fitness or On Point Nutrition to help patients become eligible to donate.
Many would-be kidney donors are ineligible because of their weight or smoking habits. This project helps them qualify orlandosentinel.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from orlandosentinel.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
