PKD Foundation: Walk for PKD - (San Antonio)
2025-09-13
The Walk for PKD is the largest polycystic kidney disease (PKD) fundraising and awareness event that is held coast to coast. 100% of funds raised go toward funding essential research.
A cure is our finish line. Since 2000, the Walk has raised over $35M for the PKD Foundation to help improve the lives of those living with PKD. The event brings together patients, caregivers, physicians, and researchers to strengthen the PKD community and help fund life-saving research.
We’re excited to gather across the nation, and with our Walk for PKD —Your Way experience, everyone can be a part of our vision to end PKD.
