Read 2025 WKD blog Series and get involved on March 13
With just days until World Kidney Day (WKD) on March 13, now is the time to take action. From small gestures to large initiatives, every effort helps to raise awareness of and improve kidney health.
Be inspired to act. Read personal accounts from people living with kidney conditions in the WKD blog series.
Lyndsey Lamb’s story highlights the impact of organ donation. After being diagnosed with kidney failure, her husband took part in a kidney voucher exchange program, and she received a life-saving transplant. Her story is a powerful reminder of why kidney health awareness, early detection, and organ donation matter.
