The Power of Altruism

Our member Rebecca Norton Sideris has donated a kidney to her trivia team member she has known for about 8 years. Rebecca has watched him persevere through 5 years of dialysis while he waited for a kidney. Last fall, she could watch it no more and offered to get tested as a donor. As fate would have it, she is a perfect match and the surgery was completed May 11th at Emory University Hospital.

A Meal Train has been set up to help her during her recovery. Please join us in showering her with love and support!
