EVERYDAY HERO STORIES

EDDIE MCCARTHY

I thought it would be hard to see this kid at school every day knowing he needed a kidney, without knowing whether I was a match.

Teachers not only educate but also shape futures and inspire greatness. And often, it extends beyond the classroom.

Eddie McCarthy went above and beyond when one of his students, Roman McCormick, was in desperate need of a kidney transplant.

After a blood test confirmed McCarthy was a match, he chose to donate one of his kidneys to the young man.

Eddie’s heroic actions remind us that teachers do more than educate. They nurture, support, and have the potential to change our lives.
