Really?! This and my concern for needing both kidneys myself (along with losing pay for sick leave) are the main factors for me not yet pursuing donating. I’ve always wanted to, and if all of those concerns are covered I am struggling to find any reason why I shouldn’t!

Hey, me too! Holland is such a neat place. Like every kid I toured the windmill for a school fieldtrip, but it wasn't until I was at Hope that I actually retained that it's a functional windmill!

Reggie, what do you wish more people knew about what it’s like to be homeless?

Kat, I just want you to know how appreciative I am of your outreach. I know not everyone understands or is willing to try and give help. I’ve been friends with a homeless woman for about three years now and have seen her through a lot, and it breaks my heart when people are cruel about her struggles. It is so hard to pull yourself out of poverty. Not everyone is actually trying, which makes it even harder for the folks who are. Keep fighting the good fight — both of you!
