Captain Neil Emmott has been a Captain in our industry for over 25 years and has been vital to the yachting industry at large. Could you please share this information with family, friends, churches, colleagues and anyone you can think of to help spread the word and find a donor for this lovely man?

 He has been a vital part of our industry and is a wonderful person and sadly just found out his prognosis: he has developed End Stage Renal Disease which is the last and most serious stage (stage 5) of Chronic Kidney Disease which causes the kidneys to permanently fail. He needs a kidney transplant ASAP and is looking for donors.

Please find it in your heart to share this news with as many people as you can to help him reach as many people as possible in order to find a suitable donor who matches the criteria needed to help save a life. Additionally, Neil’s wife, Lisa, has been through the donor process, and she is more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Lisa can be reached at findakidney4neil@gmail.com or 954-205-0067. Please learn more about him and his family and their situation here and share this too:

Please share and help this Captain know how supportive our industry is to one another. Your share could help start a conversation that can save a life. I hope that his story will touch someone who may be interested in learning more about becoming a donor for Neil or for another person in need of an organ transplant. Lisa and Neil would like to thank everyone for their help in raising awareness about becoming an organ donor.
