World Kidney Day (WKD) is a global awareness campaign aimed at raising awareness about the importance of our kidneys. WKD is a joint initiative of the International Society of Nephrology (ISN) and the International Federation of Kidney Foundations(IFKF) who, together, generate WKD campaign content, educational material and activities.  The annual campaign is overseen by the WKD Steering Committee composed of nephrology and transplantation experts who live and work in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, South America and North America. Financial support is solicited with the sole purpose of carrying out the campaign’s core activities and achieving campaign objectives. Our supporters provide financial support to carry out our activities, help us disseminate our message and strengthen our efforts, which WKD is very grateful for. However, supporters do not take part in any of the decision making and do not influence any of the content or messages disseminated by WKD.
