The Darci Seipke Benefit Foundation was founded by family and friends of Darci Seipke, a 30 year old Lake Orion, Michigan resident, who due to complications of diabetes needed a kidney transplant.  Darci has been a diabetic since she was 3 1/2 years old.  In 2007, she was informed by her doctors that she needed a transplant due to failing kidneys.  She was put on the Beaumont Hospital list for a kidney in May of 2007.  In October of 2008, she was accepted on the University of Michigan Hospital's kidney/pancreas list.  In February of 2009, she was lucky enough to receive both a kidney and pancreas from a donor.

 

Although Darci has some insurance coverage, the transplant is very costly and will continue to burden her finacially.  Our fundraising efforts continue to help her pay those expenses.

 

All proceeds from our events and promotions will go to help pay medical expenses for the kidney/pancreas transplant.
