A Conversation Can Save A Life
THE BIG ASK, THE BIG GIVE
Often the hardest part for someone with kidney failure is asking a loved one or friend to become a donor. Whether you need a kidney or are considering donation, let us help you start the conversation. Living donation makes better lives possible.
Drive for Dialysis
Drive for Dialysis is a hands-on, non-skills based corporate volunteer opportunity that allows you to engage your staff/colleagues from the comfort of your office. Employees unite as a team to assemble care packages for delivery to a local dialysis clinic(s); while learning about kidney disease and its risk factors.

Prescription Discount Card
The prescription discount card program benefitting NKF will not only help build awareness of CKD, but will make prescriptions more affordable for people with this life-threatening disease. Each time someone saves money with their prescription discount card benefitting NKF, BuzzRz makes up to $1.00 donation to the organization—at no cost to the cardholder—to help fund the mission of NKF. The card can save up to 80% on most brand name and generic medications at 60,000 pharmacies nationwide.
