Abstract

Stimulated by a mother's desire to find a cure for her child's disease, the National Kidney Foundation has grown from a small local group of interested lay persons and medical professionals into a major national organization with affiliates around the country and national and international programming in renal research funding, patient and family services, public and professional education, and public policy advocacy.
