Meet Nadya

Fifteen year-old Nadya and family stayed in the VOGA House during her recovery from kidney transplant surgery.

Nadya and family came to stay at Yellow Door in the VOGA Apartment from Martinsville, VA in June 2021.  She had the support of mom, grandma and her sister to get through a difficult time.  

Update: In the spring of 2022 Nadya is doing well and was able to attend her HS Prom.

Mom shares:

“In June of 2021, my family was blessed with the opportunity to stay with the Yellow Door foundation. My daughter received her second kidney transplant from the UVA children’s hospital and was required to follow up with the transplant team three times a week for the first month. We currently reside in the Martinsville area and the drive would have been strenuous for my daughter and me. The Yellow door foundation gave us accommodation in a clean safe environment that felt just like home.

A few fond memories of our stay were sharing the fireworks show with the kind people in the neighborhood and the delicious pasta dinner that was provided for us.

The Yellow door foundation took the worry of how I was going to care for my daughter so I could focus on caring for my daughter and I thank them tremendously.”
