Fact # 16:
Polycystic kidney disease is the most common life-threatening genetic disease, and occurs equally in men and women.

National Kidney Foundation of Wisconsin

More than 26 million Americans - one in nine adults - have chronic kidney disease, and most don't even know it.  More than 20 million others are at increased risk.

The National Kidney Foundation of Wisconsin (NKFW), along with other affiliates and divisions of the National Kidney Foundation, conducts programs in research, professional education, patient and community services, public education and organ donation.

 The work of the NKFW is funded totally by contributions.
