Why I Walk

I walk because I was blessed with the gift of a kidney donation. I did dialysis for 5 or 6 years and I witnessed first hand what kidney patients and their families go through and just how special a kidney donation is.

There are too many families coping with this devastating chronic illness, and thousands more will face an unexpected kidney disease diagnosis in the year to come.

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.

Please consider supporting my efforts with a generous donation or any way you can (Volunteer, Share, Walk).
