Sharon Davis is only 41 years-old and desperately needs a heart transplant! During Sharon’s last pregnancy, she developed a severe case of cardiomyopathy; a progressive deterioration of the heart muscle which prevents the heart from contracting. This condition eventually led Sharon into heart failure, and she now needs a heart transplant in order to survive. Sharon is listed for her surgery at the University of North Carolina Center for Transplant Care, and she is hoping to soon receive her surgery.

On a personal level, Sharon’s love for God, gospel music and her children has provided her with the support, passion and drive to persevere through these difficult times. Sharon is a strong woman, a devoted single mother of four beautiful children, and a long-time member of the Woodstone Pentecostal Holiness Church in Wendell. A former teacher at the Kids Education Center at Hocutt’s Childcare Center, her employers described Sharon as hardworking, loving and most of all, dependable. Sharon’s volunteer efforts resulted in her selection as the “Volunteer of the Year” award in 2013 for the North Carolina area Boys and Girls Club.
