The mission of the National Kidney Foundation of Upstate New York is to prevent kidney and urinary tract diseases, improve the health and well-being of individuals and families affected by these diseases, and increase the availability of all organs for transplantation.
In June 1981, the Upstate Kidney Association, who organized in a small church, decided the community would be served better by affiliating with the National Kidney Foundation. The National Kidney Foundation of Upstate New York has been serving the nine counties of: Chemung, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Schuyler, Seneca, Steuben, Wayne, and Yates for 25 years.
The National Kidney Foundation of Upstate New York has been instrumental in the fight against kidney disease by providing educational programs for the community, dialysis patients and transplant recipients, funding medical research, providing transportation and emergency funds for patients, and promoting organ donation. These efforts are funded by personal donations, corporate sponsorships, fundraisers, and the kidney car program.
