Act now to support reimbursing expenses for living donors in Pennsylvania!

Email your representative and ask them to support HB422, which provides a tax credit up to $12,000 for unreimbursed expenses for living organ donors.

Increasing living kidney donations is one of AKF's top priorities. This bill will provide a one-time tax credit to living organ donors that will cover their unreimbursed expenses directly related to donation. This includes travel, lodging and lost wages.

By removing obstacles to becoming a living donor, this bill will encourage more living kidney donations to meet our community's overwhelming need. Giving the gift of life shouldn't only be an option for people with financial means.

Click here to email your legislator and ask them to support HB422 by becoming a co-sponsor or voting YES when the bill is before them for a vote. 

I will keep you updated on our progress. 

Also, please forward this to other kidney disease advocates in Pennsylvania. We want to make sure everyone in our community is aware of this opportunity.

Thank you.
