Why We Walk

Did you know.......
-37 million Americans (1 in 7) have chronic kidney disease
-80 million are at risk and don’t know they are
-Nearly 580,000 people depend on dialysis for survival
-More than 100,000 people are on the waiting list for a                                                 kidney transplant
-Kidney disease is the 10^th leading cause of death in the U.S.

This year, our team has joined others throughout the country to fight against kidney disease. On May 19, 2024 we’ll walk for our loved ones, colleagues or friends who cope with this devastating chronic illness each day – and for those who lost their fight too soon.

Together, we walk to support the lifechanging work of the National Kidney Foundation:
     - To ensure that families will have a place to turn when they need answers.
     - To keep up the fight for policy changes to protect kidney patients and living donors.
     - To drive innovation in transplantation and get more loved ones off the kidney transplant waitlist.

Will you join us?

Walk with us and fundraise -or- support our efforts with a generous donation to improve the lives of kidney patients in our community and across the country.
