Celebrate World Kidney Day with us and GET MOVING!
On March 10, 2016, we invite everyone to get up and get moving to celebrate their kidneys.
“Move Your Feet” for World Kidney Day is a symbolic gesture to remember that kidneys are vital organs and that they should be taken care of. It is a way to make people more conscious about their lifestyle choices and in particular about the risks, dangers and burden of kidney disease and how to prevent it.
World Kidney Day 2016 ‘Move your feet’ campaign urges everyone around the globe, from all cultures and ages, to keep fit and active. This campaign is a symbol to encourage people to maintain a minimum level of physical activity in any way they can, with their own means and frequency, regardless of their physical condition. Small steps can make a difference to keep healthy kidneys and we value every single effort.
