AAKP’s 1st Annual Fun Walk will be held on Saturday, December 7, 2019. The AAKP Fun Walk is a unique opportunity for individuals affected by kidney diseases, their friends, family members and local communities, across the globe to come together to raise awareness of this important issue and support the work of AAKP. 

AAKP is the oldest and largest, fully independent kidney patient organization in the U.S.A – AAKP is dedicated to improving the lives and long-term outcome of kidney patients through education, advocacy, patient engagement and the fostering of patient communities. AAKP fights for early detection; increased kidney transplantation and pre-emptive transplantation; full patient choice of either in-center or home dialysis; protection of the patient/physician relationship; promotion of research and innovation; and the elimination of barriers for patient access to available treatment options.
