We did it! Yesterday, my kidney donor (Jorge) and I ran the #NYCMarathon 10 months after our kidney transplant in January! Thank you to kidney donors for giving us the gift of life & ability to do great things again - like running the NYC Marathon. Don’t ever give up. #DonateLife

.@StrideForStride founder Tom O’Keefe, a @BostonCollege graduate who has run the #BostonMarathon 5 times, has written a book about the kidney donation he received from a Stride for Stride runner: 'Kindness: How a Simple Act of Kindness Can Save Your Life.' bcbookmarks.com/2024/04/11/t…

I’m so happy for Tom & Jorge! What an incredible story about the power of being a living donor. Organ donation saves lives!
“The BAA 5K will be the first race that Jorge and I will run together since our kidney transplant in January.
I’m excited to have a second chance at living life. And, I’m excited to show current and future kidney recipients that there is hope.”

Thank you to everyone who donated to @StrideForStride via #WalkingBoston since the post on 2/9/24. Thanks to your generosity, $795 was donated to this wonderful mission during that period. A total of $1,600 has been raised towards my goal of $10K. gofund.me/a2770edb – at Massachusetts, USA

I usually keep my birthday private, but this year I’m celebrating it (Feb 10) by inspiring donations to a Boston non-profit that is extremely important to me, Boston, & the lives of many, @StrideForStride. Please read and share this incredible story...

Many Stride for Stride athletes would do anything for each other. In some cases, they’d even give a kidney. bit.ly/46Cxmu3
Thank you Emma for such a beautiful article.
Amazed by @StrideForStride and @BostonTweet and their work to make running more diverse and accessible. I wrote about them for @outsidemagazine outsideonline.com/running/ne…

Please meet my superhero, Jorge. I met Jorge at the 2019 Cambridge Half Marathon when he ran his first race with Team @StrideForStride. At the time I didn’t know that I would soon be diagnosed with CKD and I also didn’t know that I would soon need a kidney transplant.
