Moving Hearts

Bay National Title Company proudly supports Moving Hearts, a foundation which seeks to raise awareness of and participation in the organ donation process. Thousands of people die annually because of a lack of participation in organ donor programs. Here at Bay Title, we want to do our part to raise awareness. If you are interested, we ask you to find out how you can get involved on the Moving Hearts site, and to consider becoming an organ donor yourself by visiting Donate Life.

The foundation is dependent on charitable financial donations in order to continue their work, and Bay Title will match any donation you make at movinghearts.org. Any amount is helpful, and contributions of $100 or more will get you a signed copy of Kelly’s book, The Climb of My Life. Please email us the receipt for your donation to info@baytitlecompany.com, and we will immediately make a matching contribution.

The short film below shows Kelly and her husband Craig climbing Mt. Kenya in Africa and talking about their extraordinary journey. Bay National Title’s President, Evan Grimm, joined them on this climb and produced the film below with the support of Michael Brown and the Outside Adventure Film School. If you are moved by this story and their cause, we strongly encourage you to share this video via social media, email or any other means, and help us get the word out about the importance of organ donation.

The founder of Moving Hearts, Kelly Perkins, received a heart transplant in 1995 and has since been raising awareness about organ donation through her foundation by climbing famous mountains all around the globe. She and her husband founded Moving Hearts with the goal of increasing worldwide awareness and participation in organ donation and transplants.

Mr. Grimm had this to say about the experience of climbing with Kelly: “One of the reasons I thought it was important to get involved with this project was that in meeting Kelly and joining her on this climb I couldn’t stop thinking, ‘Wow, what an amazing person, the world would really be a lesser place without her.’ Think about how many exceptional individuals like Kelly we lose every year, just because people don’t pay attention to this.”

Bay National Title Company is committed to helping Craig and Kelly continue their work of raising worldwide awareness and participation through climbs and working with patients on waiting lists to give them hope. Learn more about Kelly and Craig here.
