Help Kidney Donor Start a New Life!

Donation protected
My name is Rashida Davis, and this is my effort to raise the funds my family requires to successfully complete our move to Sangre Grande, Trinidad.  This is the start of our new life after my recent kidney donation.   

On March 10, 2016, I gave my dad my left kidney.  Much good came out of the process indeed - my dad's life has changed and so has mine.   Also in the process, I lost a lot of work hours in pre-operation prep and in all the time I put in being his caregiver before and after the operation.  I did receive a grant from the American Transplant Institute, for which I am extremely grateful, but we are in need of some more help!  

The monies will cover some unpaid airfares and allow us to begin our first two projects in Trinidad: a community composting initiative in Sangre Grande and a seed sharing co-op that will grow into the region 's first seed bank to preserve the region's biodiversity.

They will also help cover shipping costs to send some of our belongings to Trinidad (we gave most of it away, but we kept some things we can use here), and healthy food for all of us for a few weeks.  

I need to raise as much as you are moved to give to cover the costs but will continue to campaign to get the first iniatives off the ground. This was a long time coming, and you were a part of it so I want you to have a chance to sow some seed into good ground.

My husband Nicholas and I are happy to host any donor on a Trinidad visit as our guest in our home, we will show you a wonderful time in the Trinidadian countryside!

11% of all proceeds will go to Open Bible Church Sangre Grande, Chris Burge Ministries and Joyce Meyer Ministries
