Yes. Many people donate a kidney to friends or family members that have kidney failure. The donor then has one kidney and probably the recipient has one functioning kidney.
The Kidney org site has information about how to donate a vehicle to the National Kidney Foundation. Donations are tax deductible and are handled through the One Car One Difference foundation.
donating a kidney is when someone needs a kidney and you participate to go to surgery to remove you're kidney to give to the person in need. and you are left with one kidney but you will still live.
Yes, you can! If, for example your bother has terminal kidney failure, you can donate one of your kidney's to him if your tissue types match.

having the down sydromme doesnt have nothing to do with a kidney. Of course they can donate one if it's needed.
One fully functioning kidney has the ability to clear all wastes from the body (that two kidneys would have), since healthy humans use only about 20-25% of their kidney capacity).Nothing, you will still function 100% fine. However, im not sure if it is still the same now, but you cant join the defence force with only 1 kidney.
YOU CAN ONLY DONATE ORGANS THAT YOU DON'T NEED, OR CAN LIVE WITH OUT. YOU CAN'T DONANTE A HEART AND STILL LIVE. SINCE YOU HAVE TWO KIDNEYS, YOU CAN DONATE A KIDNEY AND STILL LIVE WITH JUST ONE. YOUR BODY MIGHT NOT FUNCTION AS WELL, BUT IT WILL STILL FUNCTION.
If it's one healthy kidney, sure. Plenty of people donate one kidney and manage just fine afterwards. The concern would be if whatever it was that caused one kidney not to develop somehow messed up the existing kidney too.
Usually no. Amazingly enough we can survive with one kidney. Someone who has one kidney should see a Dr. regularly to check bloodwork regarding kidney function.
Jewish people just like every other person can donate cars on websites like Kidney Cars, American Diabetes Association, Donate A Car or Cars for a Cure.

A person can live a normal healthy life with just one kidney.
