Join the National Kidney Foundation

The National Kidney Foundation offers a variety of membership opportunities for everyone associated with kidney disease from patients and their families to health care professionals. More than 50,000 people from across the U.S. and around the world are members of NKF.

All members receive valuable publications, access to the latest information on kidney detection and treatment and the opportunity to communicate with other like-minded individuals. There is no cost for membership for patients and families, while health care professionals pay a nominal fee and receive a variety of benefits, including free subscriptions to NKF journals and discounted admission to NKF educational programs.

In addition, all members can participate the People Like Us advocacy network, either as spokespeople for the NKF and kidney patients or as participants in NKF’s Take Action Now e-advocacy network. Sign-up for the Take Action Network now.
