Kidney & Urology Foundation of America Walk the Walk for Kidney Disease and Organ Donor Awareness October 26, 2008

Every year, 84,000 Americans die from kidney disease or conditions associated with kidney disease. Over 92,000 people in the U.S. need an organ or tissue transplant to save or drastically improve the quality of their lives. On Sunday, October 26 you can help change these statistics by joining the Kidney & Urology Foundation of America in its 14th Annual Walk the Walk around Central Park to raise awareness around the need for organ and tissue donation. Walkers can log onto www.kidneyurology.org or call 1-800-633-6628 for more information. Organ and tissue donation can help save thousands of lives each year and you can help…Walk the Walk on Sunday, October 26 in Central Park. Walkers of all ages are encouraged to participate.
