🧡 Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing you a day filled with joy, gratitude, and hope.
This holiday season, TKF is proud to partner with the film’s creators, Suzanne DeLaurentiis Productions, and the Mendez National Institute of Transplantation Foundation to expand access to care and amplify a story that needs to be heard.
Our Knowledge2Action: Neighbors Helping Neighbors initiative — along with TKF’s transplant program HOPE (Helping Out People Empower) — was created to address one major problem:
👉 There is still far too little transparency in kidney care and transplantation.
Too many patients are left in the dark.
We’re working to change that.
Today, I’m excited to share the full film A Heart Full of Hope — a beautiful Christmas story about kidney transplant and the gift of life.
🎬 It’s FREE to watch and an award-winner at both Cannes and the LA Film Festival.
✨ I’m asking for your help:
✔️ Watch it
✔️ Share it
✔️ Repost it
✔️ Comment to help boost the conversation
Together, we can raise awareness, spread hope, and make sure more people understand their options.
Let’s make this go viral — for the patients and families who need it most. 🧡
