Why I Walk

I walk because too many families (like mine) are coping with this devastating chronic illness, and thousands more will face an unexpected kidney disease diagnosis in the year to come.

Kidney disease and failure is something that we don’t talk about, but it’s just as impactful as cancer.    We need to bring awareness.  We need more living donors. We need research to find new  & exciting ways to deal with this disease.   No one should die waiting for a kidney.  No one should have to wait years either.   

I 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.

Are you with me?
