Volunteer to help with Kidney Walks
Have a great time for a good cause. Whatever your skills, we have a job for you. NKF's Kidney Walks raise money for research, screening, education and patient services. Learn more here.
Other Volunteer Opportunities

How Can I Help? Whether you work in the office, from home, or at a special event, volunteering is a great way to meet people, learn new skills or keep old skills fresh, and give back to the community and the organization.

Donate your time midweek
As with any non-profit, staffing at the National Kidney Foundation of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Vermont is limited, with the amount of work to be done unlimited. If you have some computer skills, are good on the phone or like to help with mailings and have time during the week, then come volunteer at one of our offices during the day.

Have special skills? We can put them to great use.
We're particularly seeking people with marketing and media relations skills, fundraising experience, graphic arts ability, web site design and maintenance experience, and medical professionals to help with KEEP screenings and outreach. Give us a call at the office (718-278-0222) to talk about your interests and skills.

Serve on a committee
Most NKF initiatives rely on a strong volunteer base. As a result of this, a wide variety of committees exist within the organization – from patient services to fund development and event planning. If you would like more information on how to lend your expertise in the most appropriate manner, please give us a call.

Volunteer for a special event
Throughout the year, the NKF hosts numerous special events including Galas, Silent Auctions, Cadillac Golf Tournaments, and Gift of Life Walks, to name a few. Every event counts on volunteers to run smoothly and effectively!

How Do I Volunteer?

  1. Take a look at your own schedule at work and home. Determine how many hours you would be able to give and when.
  2. Determine what your interests are and what skills you would like to share.
  3. Call the National Kidney Foundation Office and we'll find a way for you to help that fits your schedule and your interests.

It’s That Easy!
