The American Kidney Fund is the nation's No. 1 source of treatment-related financial assistance to kidney patients and a leader in providing health education to people with or at risk for kidney disease.

The American Kidney Fund (AKF) reaches tens of thousands of individuals each year with information about kidney health; operates a kidney disease screening program in high-risk communities; and maintains a toll-free HelpLine (866-300-2900) which provides education about kidney disease. AKF also offers several kidney health brochures and fact sheets on our website. You can download free PDF versions or order one of each for free.
