About Us
KIDNEYS FOR KIDS
'' ADVOCATION EDUCATION DONATION''
The Mission of Kidneys For Kids is:
To assist families with a child battling kidney disease, or going through transplant, with micro- grants to cover costs not covered by insurance.
Types of costs covered by the Kidneys For Kids grant program- Travel to and from treatment for a child, travel to and from Transplant surgery,and follow up appointments. Costs of prescription drugs and nutritional supplements. Costs of household bills for families with large out of pocket treatment costs for their child. Support of lost income for families during recovery. And we now offer financial assistance to Michigan adults as well.
We also assist Living Kidney Donors who donate to a child or an adult, with costs such as lost wages while recovering, as well as travel or lodging costs.Rep/Contact Info
