Kidney Walks have been an integral part of our fundraising world since 1996. Since that time, the Kidney Walks have grown into a $400,000/year extravaganza in Michigan, and happen throughout the country! Kidney Walks raise money, empowers the kidney community, and amplifies awareness of kidney disease.

Thank you to our Walkers, Team Captains, Donors, and Sponsors who joined us at the 2025 Michigan Kidney Walk at the Detroit Zoo! Your support helped us surpass our goal by raising over  $480,000! Click here for 2025 team photos.

Each walker over the age of 12 is asked to raise at least $50 in order to offset the cost of admission tickets, entertainment, parking, etc. Walkers aged 3-12 are asked to raise $15. Walkers 2 and under are free. Our hope is that each walker will play a significant role in helping us reach our fundraising goal of $450,000. If each walker raised an average of $100, we would surpass our goal and be able to provide even more programs and services to the people of Michigan living with chronic kidney disease.
