Darrell has given so much to his family, his students, and his community. Now, we have the chance to give back—to keep his smile shining and ensure he's here for many more years of love, laughter, and music.Our friend, Darrell Wilson, is in urgent need of a kidney transplant to overcome hyperaldosteronism, stage 4 kidney failure, and years of misdiagnosis. This life-saving procedure, along with the extensive medications and post-operative care, comes with immense financial burdens. That’s where our amazing community steps in!
What We're Doing & Why:
We are hosting a "wine & wisdom" fundraiser to raise the critical funds needed to cover medical expenses, and to educate our community about living donation and kidney transplant.
