Let's find Josh Rathbun a kidney
Donation protected
My name is Eric, and I'm fundraising for my friend Josh Rathbun to find a donor kidney.
Josh is who I would consider an ideal member of the Wichita community. He's an extraordinarily talented and well-cultured chef who is conscious of ethics, quality, and our role on the planet as consumers of food. He's a focal member of Wichita's food community and consistently leverages this status to help others through serving fundraisers and hosting learning opportunities. He's a person eager to teach and to share the experiences he has learned from in his life and his career. He's committed to his beautiful family, friends, and community. In the twenty-plus years I've been friends with Josh, he has always been somebody I know I can turn to when there's a problem to solve.
Josh has a big problem to solve, and I think that we can help him. Josh has been living with kidney disease for the past several years. He received a donor transplant in 2013 and has been able to resume life as normal for years, but that kidney is now failing. Josh needs to find another donor to continue enjoying the normal life this past decade has afforded him.
Please consider giving to this campaign to help Josh. Funds raised in this campaign will go towards medical & living expenses associated with Josh's need for transplant - treatments, procedures, and recovery for both Josh and donor. All proceeds thereafter will go to the National Kidney Foundation to help others in Josh's shoes. Josh, Josh's family, and I thank you for giving. Please consider testing to see if you are a possible donor match. Visit The National Kidney Foundation to learn more about living kidney donation.
