Thank you for helping us continue our mission. Have so much fun today!

Thank you for your interest in our upcoming St. Louis Kidney Walk. Your support is improving the lives of kidney patients and their families in our community and across the country.

I’m writing to you today with an important update regarding your registration.

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been closely monitoring the coronavirus and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, and the need to take appropriate precautions to protect those most at risk. Your health and safety are our priority.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), older adults and people with kidney disease or other chronic conditions are at greater risk of experiencing serious coronavirus illness. It is especially important for patients to take preventive measures aimed at reducing the likelihood of exposure. This includes avoiding crowds and public spaces.

After careful consideration, we’ve decided to change the format of the St. Louis Kidney Walk originally scheduled for Sunday, March29th. We are diligently working to offer a virtual walk option as opposed to a physical walk so we can bring our community together safely. We believe this decision, though not ideal, is in the best interest of the entire kidney community and is necessary to protect the patients and families at the heart of our organization’s mission.
