Kidney Health Australia founded in 1968 is a not for profit organization whose focus is to improve kidney health outcomes which lead to substantial improvements to the quality of life for people with kidney and urinary tract diseases, their families and carers. We develop initiatives that reduce the incidence of kidney disease in the Australian community.
We have given a long term commitment to families and children affected by kidney disease, but the biggest challenge remains for us to reach the two million Australians who do not know they have early kidney damage. .
