AKF Living Donor Protection Report Card
Where Americans live can affect their ability to give the gift of life
The AKF Living Donor Protection Report Card grades states on seven different categories of publicly reported legislation and regulations they have in place to protect living organ donors and encourage living organ donation in each U.S. state and the District of Columbia.
We believe in kidney health for all
Everyone deserves to be as healthy as they can, no matter where they live, what language they speak or the color of their skin. But in kidney disease, race and ethnicity play a significant role.
Fighting on all fronts
From prevention and research through treatment and transplant, we are dedicated to making sure kidney patients have someone fighting by their side.
