Why I Run
It’s a fact that far too many kidney patients die from kidney disease. Until there is a cure for kidney disease, a transplant is often the best available therapy for many kidney patients, but the demand for donor kidneys far exceeds the supply. My goal is to promote living kidney donation by showing there are no limits after donation and use these opportunities to encourage other healthy individuals to consider living donation.
I am running to raise funds that support the National Kidney Foundation, who was the first to identify kidney disease as a distinct, treatable illness. They developed the staged system of kidney disease diagnosis and treatment – a worldwide standard today – and release and update treatment guidelines to improve patient care.
Join me in making these advances possible by donating to my efforts!
Thank you for your support!
