Grants for children
All of AKF's financial assistance programs are available to children who are living with kidney failure and whose household incomes qualify them for AKF assistance.

Give Children with Kidney Disease a Chance
No child fighting kidney disease should have to miss school or go without treatment because their family can't afford the costs of care. That's why the American Kidney Fund provides grants to assist these children, helping families cover cover insurance, medication, transportation and other essentials.
Each year, AKF helps tens of thousands of patients with direct financial assistance — more than any other kidney nonprofit. Donate today to help ensure young kidney warriors can grow up healthy and keep up the fight.
