🚨 A Young Woman’s Urgent Search for a Lifesaving Donor
• 👩 Hailey Simms, 20, is battling Stage 5 kidney failure.
• 🩺 Her diagnosis came in February 2025.
• 💚 Her current appeal is specifically seeking a living donor with O-negative blood type.
• 🙏 Potential donors from the Rogue Valley and beyond are being encouraged to learn more through OHSU’s living-donor program.
• ⏳ The goal is to find a qualified donor who can give Hailey a chance at a kidney transplant.
🩺 HOW YOU CAN HELP HAILEY
If you are healthy, have O-negative blood type, and are interested in exploring living kidney donation, the family’s appeal directs potential donors to:
🌐 OHSU Living Donor Program:
ohsulivingdonor.org
The donor application asks for basic health information and other details so the transplant team can determine whether you may be eligible.
❤️ To identify Hailey as the intended recipient:
Legal name: Hailey Burlington
Date of birth: January 22, 2006
According to the information provided by Hailey’s campaign, potential donors should enter those recipient details in the application so that the evaluation can be associated with her case.
🏥 OHSU Clinical Transplant Services — Living Kidney Donation
📞 503-494-8500
📧 livingdonation@ohsu.edu
OHSU confirms these are the current contact details for people interested in living kidney donation.
👉 When contacting OHSU, tell them you are interested in living kidney donation for Hailey Burlington.
⚠️ Important: Blood type and initial health information do not by themselves determine whether someone can donate. OHSU conducts an independent medical evaluation to determine donor eligibility and compatibility. OHSU also states that living donation is major surgery and that donors can withdraw from the process at any time before surgery.
💚 YOU DON’T HAVE TO KNOW HAILEY TO EXPLORE DONATION
A living donor does not necessarily have to be a family member. OHSU describes direct donation to a specific person as one form of living donation and also offers paired-exchange options when a donor and intended recipient are not compatible.
