21-year-old Mariana ( seen above on the right, talking to her sister) lives with her family in a small home in Tlamacazapa, a large rural village in Mexico. In October 2025 Mariana suddenly fell seriously ill. In hospital, she was diagnosed with end‑stage kidney disease and severe anemia. She received a blood transfusion and now is on hemodialysis twice weekly at a cost that the family cannot afford to pay. Doctors at the Instituto Mexicano de Trasplantes have confirmed that a kidney transplant is the only realistic long‑term solution. Two family members are potential donors with the chances of a successful transplant being high. Your donation will fund her next weeks of dialysis and the compatibility tests that will confirm a safe donor match. Give Mariana a chance to leave dialysis behind and start a healthier life.
