Kidney Health Week - 22 May to 28 May 2011
It's Time For Some Decent Exposure
Kidney Health Australia is launching its annual Kidney Health Week campaign under the banner of "Red Undies Week" which is designed to be playful and a little bit cheeky and give some decent exposure to chronic kidney disease, a disease which has flown under the radar for too long. To take part in Red Undies Week, visit www.redundiesweek.org.au and support Kidney Health Australia. Order our posters via our resource centre.

Central Coast Kidney Health Australia Support Group
Kidney Health Week Luncheon 2011
This group of twenty very active and energetic women, work very hard to raise funds for Kidney Health Australia's New South Wales Kidney Kids Programs. Over the last 5 years this group has raised a massive $40,000. Each year they hold four events, a luncheon during Kidney Health Week, a golf day, a fashion parade and one other event.
Our Children's Activity Co-ordinator, Stephen Anderson was invited to talk about our kids programs at their Kidney Health Week luncheon on Monday 23 May 2011, held at the Gosford Golf Club. Around 100 guests attended and the event raised $2,000 this year for these programs.
Kidney Health Week 2010
Kidney Health Week was launched in NSW at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. As part of this event, we honored six special "Angels" from New South Wales for their extraordinary contribution to the kidney community. See below some photos of our 2010 Angels being presented with their awards.
