    Description

    NW Kidney Kids - Strut Your Kidney 2026

    Strut Your Kidney is an annual community event hosted by NW Kidney Kids that brings together families, friends, and supporters to raise awareness and funds for children affected by kidney disease.

    This family-friendly gathering features a community walk, opportunities to connect with other families, and activities that celebrate strength, resilience, and hope.

    Proceeds from the event help support year-round programs, camps, and resources for children with kidney conditions and their caregivers, while also honoring patients, donors, and the community that surrounds them.

    As a Strut Your Kidney volunteer, you'll play a key role in bringing this exciting day to life from setup and participant check-in to cheering on our kidney kids and everything in between.

    Whether you have event experience or simply a heart for our mission, your energy and enthusiasm help make Strut Your Kidney a success that directly supports kidney kids and their families.

    Please apply to volunteer and help us create an unforgettable day that transforms lives!
