The Kidney Walk is a non-competitive 5K stroll that raises funds to fight kidney disease through prevention, advocacy and education. The Washington, DC area leads the nation in prevalence of kidney disease, with over 700,000 individuals suffering from it. Walkers participate as individuals or form teams with family, friends or colleagues. The Walk offers a family friendly environment with a Kids Corner, a wellness area and various pre and post-walk activities. Walkers are encouraged to fundraise for the event.
