Kidney Adventures
July 26, 2025 dozens of NKFW community members gathered at Brittingham Park in Madison to pay tribute and celebrate the mission of National Kidney Foundation of Wisconsin. The rain paused just long enough for walkers to make it around the course. Then, we gathered under the shelter of the pavilion for snacks and awards, including recognition of the high school artists who participated in the Transplant Poster Contest.
Thank you to our sponsors, fundraising team captains, and volunteers who bring this event to life!
Stay tuned for information on our summer event for 2026!
