Turkish Kidney Foundation’s World Kidney Day official celebration takes place at UNSPED (former UPS) Culture and Sports Club’s Hall. The idea behind the activity is based on a populer reality TV show “Survivor”. Our message is “real Survivor is to learn, to understand and to implement this 8 Golden Rules to your life to live healthy.” We encourage people, especially the youth to eat health, exercise, daily health check such as blood pressure and blood sugar measurements, annual physician visit, sufficient water intake, avoid smoking&tobacco products and maintain health BMI ratio. There is a racecourse with 8 different stations which each refers a statement of 8 Golden Rules. A former Survivor participant/dancer/PhyEd teacher Mr Hasan Yalnizoglu and a national female athlete will be accompanied by two young athletes and they all will act like they are racing at the track by visiting each station to show its feature accordingly. Audience will be applausing and cheering to support their vital endevaor. At the “finish” line, TKF’s President and “Grandpa Kidney” Mr timur Erk will meet them to present their medals. Later on, press conference will be held.
