SHOWTIME BOXING PROMOTIONS PRESENTS
A KIDNEY CONVO
FEATURING CT FLETCHER – JOIN THE FIGHT TO AMPLIFY VOICES IN NEED


Showtime Boxing Promotions, in partnership with Next Step Next One, is bringing A Kidney Convo to the community—a powerful 90-minute event focused on real people battling kidney disease and searching for living donors.

At this event, CT Fletcher—legendary strength athlete, heart transplant recipient, and undeniable voice for overcoming adversity—will help elevate the stories of individuals who are fighting for their lives and for more time with the people they love. CT knows firsthand what it means to rely on the strength and generosity of others, and he’ll be there to help shine a light on the voices that need to be heard.

This is not a medical lecture.
This is not a fundraiser.
This is a conversation rooted in humanity, urgency, and action.


What Happens at the Event

Attendees will gather to watch short films from the Next Step Next One storytelling project, featuring:

  • People living with kidney disease who are actively searching for a donor
  • Transplant recipients sharing their journeys and second chances
  • Living donors opening up about why they stepped forward and how their lives changed afterward

Facilitated conversations invite participants to:

  • Listen deeply
  • Ask questions
  • Reflect on how kidney disease affects our communities
  • Explore real ways to offer support, compassion, and connection

A Kidney Convo is a space to learn, feel, and walk away inspired to act—however big or small that next step may be.

Showtime Boxing Promotions and Next Step Next One are proud to stand together and bring these stories forward. Because when we amplify these voices, we bring more lives within reach of hope—and a donor.
