Why I Walk

I am walking this year to raise awareness of the National Kidney Foundation as well as the IgA Nephropathy Foundation.  This past year, the NKF and the IgAN Foundation hosted doctor/patient discussion panels in order to improve doctor-patient communications.  They invested in me. I'd like to give back to them.

I also want to increase awareness of IgA Nephropathy and hope to meet up with other IgAN patients at the walk!  If you are a patient, care-giver, or have a connection to IgAN, I'd love to have you join my team! 

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

Are you with me?
