Step Forward Philadelphia!
A Walk to benefit The NephCure Foundation
Step Forward Philadelphia!!

Help support the NephCure foundation to save kidneys and save lives. NephCure is the only organization in the world dedicated to support research to find the cause, improve treatment, and cure two deblilatating kidney conditions--Nephrotic Syndrome and Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).

These conditions affect over 50,000 patients--and with a cure unknown and the number of newly diagnosed patients on the rise, your support is critical.

So even if you can't join us--you can still help us take a Step Forward towards a cure by providing important support for our mission through your contribution.

Mimi Watson $100.00 "Thank you for sharing your story. My 18 month old daugher, Avery Caroline, was diagnosed this past March with Idiopathic FSGS. She has unfortunately not responded to steroids/immunosuppressants and has yet to show improvement on ACE/ARBs...but we are hopeful. I pray that all the children affected with this disease get the answers and treatment they need. Good luck to Max."
