NKF Serving Southern California and Nevada

Virtual Kidney Walks

We invite you to walk your way at our virtual West Coast Kidney Walk.

This year, we are breaking down all the geographic boundaries of the past to form the first ever West Coast Kidney Walk! On Oct. 3, thousands will unite across California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington to improve the lives of people with kidney disease and those at risk everywhere.

Southern CA Walkers – Register Here
Our Southern California Walk celebrates the 12th annual Los Angeles and Orange County Kidney Walks and unites walkers from Bakersfield and San Luis Obispo all the way south through the desert communities and San Diego.

Nevada Walkers – Register Here
The Nevada Walk celebrates the 7th annual Las Vegas Kidney Walk and welcomes the entire Nevada kidney community!

LaceUp your walking shoes and join us from the comfort of your home, neighborhood or local park. We may not be able to unite in person, but our different paths share a common goal; together we’ll LaceUp to change lives.

By participating in this year’s Kidney Walk, you’ll let others know they’re not alone.

Caring knows no distance; no matter how or where you walk—one simple step can change a life.

Local Support Group

As a resource, we recommend the Saddleback Church Kidney Disease Support Group. Due to Covid-19, the group now meets virtually on the second Saturday of the month and the fourth Monday of the month.

For more information, please contact Helen Mills, Support Group Leader, at sparkymiss@cox.net or 949.412.3210

Join the NKF Ambassador Program!

Volunteers are an integral part of the NKF team. Without them we would be unable to reach the 73 million Americans at risk for kidney disease and the health professionals who care for them. Volunteers contribute their unique talents, skills and knowledge of the community to: enhance the programs and services to our constituents; facilitate the achievement of our goals; and educate the public about our organization and its mission. Volunteers are a valuable human resource warranting appropriate orientation, training, opportunities for personal and professional growth and ongoing recognition. We value the collaboration of volunteers and encourage their input in planning and development.
