Senior Sisters Win County Caring Award

By Madison Brody
     This spring a pair of Wall High School twins were recognized for double the caring. 
  
On March 10, seniors Kimberley and Kiley Hubbard won the Monmouth County Caring Award. Its main qualifications are showing compassion toward a group, cause or program in high school. 
    
As devoted members of the Donate Life and D.E.L.T.A. clubs, the Hubbards were nominated by guidance counselor Ms. Judy Gilberti and student assistance counselor Mrs. Alysa Regenye, both advisors for the respective clubs, for their contributions. 
     
“I feel like throughout my time in the Donate Life club I've shared my story to my peers because I've had a kidney transplant and I've encouraged people to sign up to become organ donors, share my story and help others,” Kiley said.
     
The identical twins couldn’t heap enough praise on the Donate Life club and how influential it’s been for them as students and people, especially Kiley, who found a dedicated community to a cause she knows all too well. 
    
“I was born in renal failure,” she said. “For the first five years of my life, I was on dialysis, and it inspired me to become active and bring awareness to organ and tissue donations. I overcame my medical complications and that helped inspire me, gave me the passion to bring awareness [to the cause].” 
     
As a result, the Hubbards turned hardship into headlines. 
     
“If you're passionate about a certain topic, try to bring awareness to it,” Kimberly said. 
     
But it wasn’t only the Donate Life club and D.E.L.T.A. club the sisters credit with bringing attention to their cause. Wall yearbook advisor Mrs. Janet Molicki molded them as well.
     
“[She] helped both of us gain more confidence to become leaders,” Kimberly said.
     
Kimberly and Kiley Hubbard are both extremely active students and continue to strive for excellence with special thanks to Ms. Gilberti, Mrs. Regenye and Mrs. Molicki.
