What does it mean to TRULY save a life? For humanitarian Moira Kelly, the answer was simple—give a part of herself.
In this episode of Don't Be Caught Dead, we dive deep into the extraordinary life of Moira Kelly, a remarkable humanitarian whose journey has been defined by compassion, courage, and the gift of life. From her early dreams of working alongside Mother Teresa to her recent act of becoming a living kidney donor to Krishna, one of the conjoined twins she brought to Australia, Moira's story is a testament to the power of love and selflessness. Join us as we explore her incredible experiences, the challenges she faced, and the profound impact she has made on countless lives.
Moira's journey began with a childhood fascination for humanitarian work, inspired by the legendary Mother Teresa. After years of dedicated service in various countries, including Albania and Bangladesh, she became a beacon of hope for children in need. Her work with the Children First Foundation and the Moira Kelly Creating Hope Foundation has transformed the lives of many, but it was her recent decision to donate a kidney to Krishna, one of the conjoined twins she helped separate, that truly exemplifies her unwavering commitment to making a difference.
