2009 Kidney Walk

Tue Jun 16, 2009, 7:34 AM
This year I will be walking and participating in the 2009 Kidney Walk in Philadelphia this October. As someone who has gone through kidney failure and now deals with kidney disease, this is a cause that is very close to my heart. Raising awareness and knowledge is needed to help prevent this disease.

Facts about Kidney Disease:
- Chronic kidney disease is a public health problem affecting 26 million Americans

- Risk factors include diabetes, high blood pressure and family history

- One in nine American adults have kidney disease and most don’t know it

- 92,000 people are waiting for organ transplants

- 17 people die each day waiting for an organ transplant

- It is the 9th leading cause of death in the US.

If you would like to donate please stop by my donation page - [link] to donate (any amount is greatly appreciated)

I will also be selling my Set Free poster - where proceeds will go to achieving my goal of $500 (US). If you would like to purchase this poster please go to [link]
