Yasher Koach Rabbi Simon!
Kidneymitzvah.com is where someone should go who is inspired to donate an organ to a fellow Jew in need. As Rabbi Simon mentioned in the podcast, Chaya Lipschutz, a kidney donor herself, makes the shidduch and helps the donor navigate the process. I merited to be her third liver match, joining Rabbi Simon in the kidneymitzvah.com family of organ donors. Given the opportunity, I would do it all over again.
