ABOUT THE LIFE SAVERS FOUNDATION
In May of 2017 , Carole Pickup hosted an event at the BBR designed to bring awareness to the crucial need for living organ donors . As a result , Bruce Cook , editor of Bay Window received a kidney from Laguna Beach resident Heidi Miller , saving his life . Four years later , post pandemic , Carole is joining Bruce , Heidi and Reverand John Huffman to pay the gift of life forward helping many in need of organ transplantation here in Orange County . The purpose of The Life Savers Foundation OC is to grant financial assistance to living organ donors paying for expenses related to lost wages , hotel , travel , medical appointments and more . Taking away the financial burden will enable so many more generous people to “ save a life .” In Heidi ’ s words , “ The gift of life is the greatest gift of all .”
Consider joining the cause . Your participation is life changing .
