Jeff

Jeff has been battling IgA Nephropathy (Berger’s disease) for quite some time now. Sadly, he is in the end stages of kidney failure and needs our help. We’re searching for someone willing to save his life and donate a kidney.

 

He is a wonderful father, brother, uncle and community leader. He is currently a Deputy Fire Marshall for Portland, Oregon and has been working in the various Oregon Fire Department branches for over 3 decades. He has dedicated his entire career to helping our community. 

 

Jeff was born in Corvallis, Oregon and has made Oregon home his entire life. He worked incredibly hard in school and has wanted to be a fireman since he was a little boy. He started from the bottom and gradually rose through the ranks within Oregon Fire and Rescue. 

 

He has two wonderful kids - aged seven and eight, along with four nephews and three nieces. Whether it be his children, family, siblings or community, he takes care of everyone tirelessly. Now, it’s time to take care of him and help save his life.

 

Currently there is no cure for his autoimmune disease. More information on her disease can be found: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/iga-nephropathy/symptoms-causes/syc-20352268
