JEANNE McCOY, GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA

 

Vice-Chairman of the Board

 

Jeanne McCoy is an active community volunteer, serving the Junior League, the American Cancer Society, the Greenville County Legal Auxiliary, and her children’s school. A former French teacher with degrees from Wake Forest and the University of Georgia, Jeanne is now a stay-at-home mother to her three children. Her husband, Ellison, is a labor and employment law attorney. Jeanne was diagnosed with VHL in 2003, less than a year after her mother’s diagnosis. Her grandmother lived to the age of 82 despite suffering blindness and other ill effects of VHL. Since her diagnosis, Jeanne has had two neurosurgeries and two kidney surgeries. Jeanne’s personal and family experience with VHL have led her to be a vocal advocate for those whose lives have been impacted by VHL and cancer in general. Jeanne intends to use her board membership as an opportunity to develop additional outreach programs regarding VHL.
