Working to support families, educate our community, and fight Nephrotic Syndrome
KIDNEY AWARENESS
Kidney Awareness is an important part of what The Nephrotic Syndrome Foundation is aiming to do alongside supporting patient families and research. Knowledge is a very powerful tool, and the more we spread the word about Nephrotic Syndrome and our foundation, the wider we can grow our community and the more people we can connect with!
GET INVOLVED
Raising funding and research aren't the only ways to support those with Nephrotic Syndrome, education and awareness is an essential part of our journey!
Whether you are directly impacted by Nephrotic Syndrome, or are just wanting to spread awareness, we have compiled resources to help you communicate what Nephrotic Syndrome is, share your story, and highlight NSF’s mission! You will find various classroom presentation ideas (text, game, experiment (best for preschool to 5th grade - focused on how our kidneys work, and how eating healthy can benefit our kidneys), Dine and Donate ideas, NSF fliers and logos, and Kidney Awareness Month social media graphics. In addition, click the We Hope Meet-Up link below to watch a recording of our recent "idea" meet-up!
