Raise Funds and Raise Awareness during the New Jersey Internet Station Virtual Benefit Concert for National Foundation for Transplants         

The New Jersey internet radio station BlowUpRadio.com is hosting this very special fundraiser the weekend of March 4th and March 5th.  Download and listen to some great music and give to the National Foundation for Transplants. Everyone who donates $10 or more will receive a code to download a special compilation containing over 40 previously unreleased songs.

NFT’s mission is to save lives by removing financial barriers that delay or prevent access to transplantation. Since its inception in 1983, NFT has generated more than $85 million to assist patients during their transplant journey as well as serve more than 2,500 patients annually.

The New Jersey webathon will feature over 25 artists each performing a 30 minute set of their music live.   Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and enhanced safety protocols at live concerts, this webathon is strictly virtual and can be heard from the comfort of one’s home on BlowUpRadio.com.  All artists will be performing remotely.  For a list of featured artists please go to www.blowupradio.com.

Our very own Catherine Wacha, NFT patient, will be one of the featured artists.  She has also carved out time to coordinate this event with Lazlo, founder, and on-air personality for BlowUpRadio.com.  Together they have done an amazing job of hosting benefits to raise money for various worthy causes.   

This year Catherine made the decision to focus on the National Foundation for Transplants because she is a transplant recipient and wants to help others that are currently facing a similar journey.  “I can tell you from first-hand experience that managing a chronic illness is a stressful endeavor both mentally and financially, says Catherine Wacha.   “After 20 years of battling Lupus and Chronic Kidney Disease, I found myself in need of a kidney transplant.  I had health insurance but a transplant costs $250,000-$300,000 if everything goes well.  So, not only was I incredibly stressed about needing a rather extreme treatment, but I had no idea exactly how much I was going to owe.  I did know I’d be out of work without pay for at least 3 months.  The National Foundation for Transplants helped ease the burden for me.  When Lazlo asked if I wanted to work a benefit for him in the spring, I thought this would be the perfect time to give back and help some of the people who may not otherwise reach their needed goal.”



National Foundation for Transplants is headquartered in Memphis, TN.  NFT serves all 50 states and US territories. National Foundation for Transplants focuses on providing fundraising expertise and advocacy, being a program resource for medical professionals, promoting organ and tissue donation, and supporting innovative solutions and lifesaving treatments.
