A small start up by a local Arlington resident just launched a free app called WhensIt that gives busy parents in two clicks the **Local School Calendars, SAT/ACT test deadlines, and College Application Deadlines** with rankings. The resident was frustrated from years of hunting on the internet too long and too often for what he thought should be a couple clicks away. The app also gives residents a listing of all the **concerts, sporting events, expos, conferences, and shows in one place. Local organizations can add to the event listing**. The app is catching the attention of regional news outlets.

My husband Rob is 41 years old and has Polycystic Kidney Disease, a genetic condition that causes both kidneys to fill with benign tumors until they stop working. He is in kidney failure and desperately needs a living kidney donor– he’s on the national waitlist but the current wait is seven years. Even if you aren’t a perfect match for him, he can still get a kidney with the donation of ANY healthy kidney through the paired exchange program.
