Our 10th annual Kidney Walk was a roaring success, exceeding our fundraising goal and reaching $126,803.75!

This year we hosted three walks in Manitoba. On September 17th we met in Brandon, where 60+ community members joined us for a walk around the neighbourhood and raised just shy of $19,000. Next, we gathered at St. Vital Park on September 24th, where 250+ people came together despite the rain and raised over $98,000. And on October 1st we gathered in Morden, where our Pembina Valley kidney community and raised over $8,000.

A huge thank you to our cash sponsors, Shur-Gro Farm Services, Excel-7, and Taylor McCaffrey LLP, who invested in our kidney community and helped make the Kidney Walk a success.

This year’s walks were extra special. We had the most first-time participants and Champion-level participants than ever before, showing that more Manitobans are feeling connected to our cause. Our deepest thanks to all of our participants, Champions, donors, sponsors, and supporters who helped make this year’s Kidney Walk a memorable one!
