MEET HALEY!!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 we couldn’t be more excited to welcome Haley to our team! Let’s get to know her⬇️

Haley Jacoway, Programs Director:
I was born and raised in Nashville, but just moved to Chattanooga with my husband, Ben a little over a month ago. We have a precious, angel dog named Jax who you may see around the KF office. I worked in the nonprofit world in Nashville for a few years before moving here, and I am thrilled to stay in this industry to help fill the gaps for those in need!

Hobbies:
- I have read a book a week so far this year
- I love reality TV
- My husband and I are foodies. We have a long list of places to go eat in Chatt. We’d love to hear your suggestions!
- I played tennis growing up and recently have come to love pickleball! Holler if you wanna play!
- Home Renovations have reluctantly fallen into this category
- The beach is my happy place!
- All of these are truthful hobbies, but let’s be real. Shopping will always be my #1

So excited to meet everyone and join this fun team at the KF!

/// what a JOY it was to celebrate her birthday and give her the BEST tour of Chattanooga to officially welcome her into our girl gang! Say hello in the comments below🙋🏻‍♀️⬇️🌈

—> Why “Big Hair Affair?” 🌈🤘🏼🎸

• Big Hair Affair is a time for us to celebrate The Kidney Foundation becoming an Independent, LOCAL organization! In 1989, we said “adios!!” to being affiliated with a large, national nonprofit and “HELLO!!” to keeping all money raised local, to help our kidney patients directly here in the Greater Chattanooga Area! 🙌🏼🙌🏿

—> DID YOU KNOW❓Chattanooga’s first kidney transplant took place at Erlanger in 1989. The transplant was performed by Dr. Daniel Fisher, as well as one of the Kidney Foundation founders, Dr. Jackson Yium. 🫶🏼

🪩 When you give to the Kidney Foundation, you can be confident that your donation is directly helping someone on dialysis or a kidney transplant, right here in our lovely Scenic City. Now that is something to celebrate!
