Kidney Walk
Let’s Walk Together
The Kidney Walk is the nation’s largest movement to fight kidney disease. It’s more than a walk—it’s a celebration of life, strength, and community. Together, we honor kidney donors, recipients, patients, and remember those we’ve lost, all while raising critical funds to support lifesaving programs.
Why Walk? Because Every Step Matters.
Your participation directly supports:
-
Patients and families navigating kidney disease.
-
Early detection and education for at-risk communities.
-
Research that leads to better treatments and longer lives.
-
Advocacy that drives change on Capitol Hill.
Over 80 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to research, patient services, public and professional education, and community outreach.
NKF GOLF CLASSIC
Tee Off for a Cause at the NKF Golf Classic
The NKF Golf Classic is the premier amateur golf event benefiting kidney health nationwide. Each year, thousands of golfers across the country compete in over 30 tournaments, all leading to the prestigious National Finals at Pebble Beach—and all in support of the fight against kidney disease.
More than just a game, every swing supports the National Kidney Foundation’s mission to prevent kidney disease, support patients and families, and educate healthcare professionals and at-risk communities.

Ride the Wave for Kidney Health
The Pro-Am Surfing Festival is more than a surf competition—it’s a legacy of hope, founded in honor of professional surfer and kidney transplant recipient Richard K. Salick. Along with his brother Phil, Richard launched this event over 30 years ago in Cocoa Beach to raise awareness and funds for kidney disease and support dialysis patients.
