NKF Serving Iowa & Nebraska

Welcome! We're Glad You're Here.

Who We Are

The National Kidney Foundation is revolutionizing the fight to save lives by eliminating preventable kidney disease, accelerating innovation for the dignity of the patient experience, and dismantling structural inequities in kidney care, dialysis, and transplantation.

This year, NKF is celebrating 75 years of transforming kidney health. 

Make a Difference!
