What is the National Kidney Foundation and how does it help?
More than 20 million Americans have some form of kidney or urologic disease. Millions more are at risk. The National Kidney Foundation, Inc., a major voluntary health organization, is working to find the answers through prevention, treatment and cure. Through its 52 Affiliates nationwide, the Foundation conducts programs in research, professional education, patient and community services, public education and Organ and Tissue Donation. The work of the National Kidney Foundation is funded entirely by public donations.
