Why We Walk

This year, our team has joined others throughout the country to fight against kidney disease. On June 14, 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.

Our family fight is against Alport Syndrome, a rare kidney disorder with no cure yet.  We fight to keep our native kidneys healthy as long as possible and to keep track of our hearing and eyesight which are both affected by this disease.  

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.
