[Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] hashem's work Hashem gives life and the donors here at renewal give life February 2013 to be exact is when I donated my kidney I donated my kidney to an ashkenaz guy I never know who he was didn't mean it for that day in the hospital if that I don't know his life he was currently on dialysis he had six months to live we became very good friends since then his kids called me up he invited me to his weddings I did better Court in his weddings under hoopa and I said you know I got to do this again but I can't do it again I got to get involved with this organization I gotta do this more often and then AJ gindy joins our team AJ is a Kidney donor and not only is AJ Sephardic AJ brings another 40 of his closest friends to donate kidneys as well remember just one phone call that's all I have to do make one phone call we get their hospital records and we do everything after that point I told Cindy when we started that if we do one transplant it'll be worth the investment if we do two transplants it'll be a home run out of the park we're celebrating now a thousand transplants so if people hear the number one thousand they say that's incredible we don't look at the number one thousand if those thousand people only know a hundred people you're talking about a hundred thousand people that are affected by what we did for people to understand how beautiful renewal is and what we've accomplished over the years out of 350 million people living in America they're roughly 500 altruistic transplants renewal is responsible for 20 of that our community has taken us to a whole different level the financial support that we have received from this community cannot be believed membership in Army Israel is priceless we have our differences it's not only a thousand people's lives that were saved parents brothers sisters we've together impacted tens of thousands of lives that's not possible without renewal I'm here to get my transplant and to thank my donor I don't know who you are but you have such a big heart I don't know what made you do such a thing but I am very grateful very grateful and I want to thank AJ kindy and renewal for all the help and support I have a new life this is a reborn day for me here I am getting ready for my surgery thanks to uh renewal and I just wanted to share with you guys we saw how
