Donor is friend’s mother; applied through Facebook From page 1 that your body really wears down,” David Mahncke said. In November the Mahnckes received a lifechanging phone call. A match had been found. “ I wa s j u s t k i n d o f shocked. We didn’t really know anyone was that close to getting tested,” Amanda Mahncke said. The mother of one of Amanda’s friends from college applied through a Fa ce b o o k pa ge t h a t Amanda created and was approved as a donor match. “She really stepped up and basically helped a stranger,” Amanda Mahncke said. “We couldn’t be more grateful.” David Mahncke received his new kidney in December

and is regaining his health. “I can really tell a difference. I’m eating and putting on weight,” he said. “We are so thankful.” The couple continues to spread organ donation awareness to the community via Facebook and by teaming up with the Waterloo Black Hawks hockey team. “They brought us an idea that we could use Waterloo
Black Hawks games to help spread awareness about organ and tissue donation. We thought that was a good idea,” said Tim Harwood, spokesperson for the team. H a r wo o d c o n t a c te d

currently waiting for organ donations, according to the Iowa Donor Network. About 470 of those are waiting for a kidney. “If you’re interested in organ donation after you’re deceased, do register. You cannot take your organs with you and you can save someone’s life,” Amanda Mahncke said.
