Kidney Heroes Giving Day is August 19. Make a gift to honor the volunteers, advocates, healthcare professionals, and everyday heroes who make a life-changing difference for people with kidney disease.
75 Years of Strength. Powered by Heroes Like You.
On August 19th, Kidney Heroes Giving Day, we celebrate the heroes of the kidney community who inspire us every day with their strength, compassion, and resilience. Your early support powers the NKF’s work and fuels progress for every life touched by kidney disease.
And thanks to a generous match from Otsuka America Pharmaceutical Inc., your gift will be doubled—up to $20,000.
