Why Kerry and I are fundraising for National Kidney Foundation

Right now, 35.5 million American adults are living with kidney disease, and we’re not okay with that. We're sponsors  because 1 in 3 people are at risk for kidney disease and 1 in 7 people have it but aren’t aware.  Kerry was a statistic.

Kerry was diagnosed with end-stage renal failure 3-years ago which required peritoneal dialysis. After undergoing the required screenings for a kidney donor, doctors confirmed that I was a match and cleared me to donate.

I gave Kerry the gift of life by way of a kidney transplant administered by an amazing team of doctors and medical professionals at the Miami Transplant Center on February 20, 2025.

You may donate to Team Kerry and Sylvia or our Team Captain's current fundraiser which is Kerry’s 60th Birthday Celebration, 100% of the funds will go to the Kidney Foundation.

Kerry and I are also raising awareness that support the National Kidney Foundation, who was the first to identify kidney disease as a distinct, treatable illness. They developed the staged system of kidney disease diagnosis and treatment – a worldwide standard today – and release and update treatment guidelines to improve patient care.

Join us in making these advances possible by donating to my efforts!

Thank you for your support!
