Within less than a decade, Israel’s Matnas Chaim kidney donor organization headed by Rav Yeshayohu Haber of Bnei Brak celebrated its 700th partnership between an altruistic donor and a patient suffering from irreversible kidney disease.
The most recent kidney was donated by a young man from a kibbutz in the north and was transplanted into a stranger from the Golan Heights at Petach Tikvah’s Beilenson Medical Center.
“Today we mark a significant milestone in eliminating the waiting list for transplants, and, in fact, creating a ‘reverse’ list in which there will be more people who want to donate than people waiting for transplants,” Rav Haber said.
