A Kidney Convo 

Come Curious.  Leave Inspired. 

What to expect

An opportunity to learn

  • Real Stories

​Donors and recipients share their experiences — honest, human, unscripted.

  • No pressure

No one will ask you to donate. This is a space to listen and learn.

  • Free to attend

No cost, no commitment, no obligation of any kind.

Let's Be Clear

What a Kidney Convo is and what it isn't.

We know attending and/or inviting someone can feel like a big ask.

Here's an overview of the program so you know exactly what to expect:

What it is
  • A safe space to learn through real stories from real donors and recipients

  • Guided discussion that answers honest questions without medical jargon

  • Camera off, audio off. Participants ask questions in the chat

  • A chance to decide — on your own terms — if this is something you want to explore further

What it isn't
  • Not a sales pitch — no one will ask you to donate your kidney

  • Not a commitment — attending does not mean you're signing up for anything

  • Not pressuring — if someone shared this with you, attending is entirely your choice

  • Not a medical lecture — this is storytelling, not a clinical presentation

What people are saying

Don't take our word for it. 

“What I liked about the program…everything. The testimonies, the music, the emotions…it really put you in these people’s shoes. Extremely thought provoking and even though I’m in the trenches with this every day, I found myself tearing up multiple times and wishing I could “be the next one.””

Christine, Living  Transplant Donor Coordinator

 "I'm thrilled that the Colorado Kidney Disease Prevention and Education Task Force has partnered with Next Step Next One to host Kidney Convos across the state — sharing information creating community and offering hope to Coloradans in need of a kidney transplant."

"As a dialysis patient, I felt completely lost — I truly believed I'd have to ask someone to put themselves in harm's way just for me to survive. The Kidney Convo restored that hope by showing me that living donation is not only possible, but life-changing. I wish something like this had existed when I was on dialysis."
