Hi Supporter,

Kidney patients in Mississippi have to depend on assistance from organizations like Mississippi Kidney Foundation to help afford the care they need.

With your help, we can serve the community that relies on help daily.

Can we count on you?
80%
Dialysis is life support. Treating kidney failure and its comorbidities is more consuming than a full-time job: more than 80% of patients cannot work.
28%
The average income of patients AKF helps is less than $25,000, yet average out-of-pocket costs for 20.9% Hispanic/Latino, 5.2% Native American/ Asian/ Pacific Islander dialysis patients is greater than $10,000/yr.
1,750
There were 1,750 new cases of kidney failure diagnosed in Mississippi in 2018. Only 21 were able to get a transplant.
10,132
In 2020, there were 10,132 Mississippi residents living with end-stage renal disease (ESRD, or kidney failure). Without treatment—dialysis or a transplant—ESRD is fatal.
