Hear Benita's Rooted in Life story

God and my donor did it again!

Benita Two-time kidney recipient

Why Donate?

85% of people waiting on the list need a kidney, and many are on dialysis

Organ donation is a personal matter for Regina, past Midwest Regional Director for Delta Sigma Theta. She holds donation close to her heart.

Regina’s best friend Benita is a kidney transplant recipient, and three of her siblings have been touched by transplantation and donation – her two sisters are organ recipients, and her brother is currently on the transplant waiting list. She has learned a lot about the donation process and wants to help identify health disparities within the Black community and help break down the stigma that prevents members of the community from registering as donors.
