About
Kindness for Kidneys International, Inc. was officially launched on December 2, 2018 in Maryland. Our founder, Sharron Rouse, wanted to use her experiences with chronic kidney disease, dialysis, and a kidney transplant to change the face of kidney disease, especially in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Kindness for Kidneys strives to:
- Educate – To raise awareness on the causes of kidney disease, early detection/prevention, kidney transplantation and kidney organ donation
- Encourage – To bring hope to kidney warriors and their families by facilitating patient community networks, as well as outreach and support programs
- Empower – To empower kidney warriors and their families to take an active role in their kidney care in order to live a quality life and help other warriors do the same
