The show’s are inspiring, informational and entertaining. Guests are difference makers.

Drive for Five
It’s been written often in this space about the spiritual impact a group of goofs gathering Friday mornings has played in my life. Immeasurable. Including the squad’s role in the birth and continued growth of Drive for Five.America is burdened with a growing kidney crisis. Transplant lists are long and getting longer. End-stage renal disease is an increasingly heavy pack to carry. One of many present threats to America’s well being.www.linkedin.com/pulse/drive-five-lighten-load-mark-mcintosh-qphxc ...

Yet we savor memories and, despite advancing ages, eagerly look to the future with purpose to finish strong.www.linkedin.com/pulse/drive-five-homecoming-mark-mcintosh-vixjc ... See MoreSee Less

Advocate

The Drive For Five Network is actively involved in advocacy to develop and pass smart legislative policies at the state and federal levels encouraging greater participation in live organ donation. There’s 90,000 Americans on waits lists but only about 27,000 deceased and live organ donors annually. And it’s getting worse. The DFF Network strongly advocates for modifying NOTA.

Inspire

The Drive for Five Network was birthed in Mark McIntosh’s weekly men’s fellowship group. When the bunch learned one of their members needed a kidney transplant, the fellas challenged McIntosh. “Given your communications skills and social media following? Go find 5,000!” The challenge was accepted.

The Missouri native and other DFF Network correspondents create content - writing and videos - designed to inspire Americans to “Share their spare, safe a life, leave a priceless legacy.” As managing editor of DFF, McIntosh writes a weekly column published Mondays extolling the need and benefits to live organ donation. America has a growing kidney crisis with far more citizens in need of organ transplants and dying while waiting on lists.
