Just up-dating the old 2016 list.
GENERAL: If you go to such sites as www.etsy.com, www.pinterest.com or even www.amazon.com and just type "Kidney Donation", "Organ transplant" etc in the search box you can find all sorts of things.
MEDICAL ALERT BRACELETS, ETC. (Some medical professionals recommend that kidney donors wear something to tell first responders that there is only one kidney. If contrast dyes must be used for scans the docs can sometimes use safer doses and follow other flushing procedures to reduce the danger of harm to the remaining kidney. And of course you can add other information as well.)
There are lots of companies that can be found by searching "Medical alert". Here are a few:
