Jeffrey Campbell Evans Foundation Inc

I'm Bob Evans and live in Ball Ground with my wife Mary. Back in 2003 an unknown deadly virus entered our 23 year old son's heart and in approximately 10 days destroy 80% of his heart's ability to work. The transplant team at St. Joseph's Hospital examined Jeff's heart and determined he had approximately 6-8 months to live and a heart transplant would extend his life greatly. This put our family on a path of despair and never knowing how our family could handle all that waited for Jeff to do and our family providing the support required to see this through.
Jeff lost his life 3 years later waiting for a heart transplant that never came. Living in the transplant world taught our family an overwhelming need that is left undone by the medical world. Much evaluation and research lead us to learn that we could bring a new level of assistance and help for all transplant patients.
We brought into existence the Jeffrey Campbell Evans Foundation 7 years ago and the benefits offered are excellent. To date, we've helped over 180 Georgian families through the difficult time of a transplant operation and the lengthy recovery period.
The Jeffrey Campbell Evans Foundation furnishes large 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, living room, dining room, laundry, patio, full furnished living quarters near Emory, Children's Hospital of Atlanta and Piedmont Hospital.
Our 501 C 3 non-profit foundation is registered with the Federal Government.
As an individual or owner of a company your donations will impact an adult or child's life.
Following a patient's transplant patients are required to find lodging near the hospital. They are required to visit the medical team often between 45-60 days following surgery prior to going home. We offer them a beautiful home to complete this period evaluation.
The JCEF exists because of public donations.
