National Kidney Foundation to Host Annual Gala

1263

The National Kidney Foundation of Michigan is asking for support from the community on Saturday for the 11th annual Kidney Ball which raises money to help fight chronic kidney disease that effects more than 900,000 people in Michigan and the many more at risk.

The annual Kidney Ball will once again host the crowd favorite Kids Auction Toy Room, featuring toys that are auctioned to support the many programs and services of the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan.

The black tie event with live and silent auctions hopes to raise the needed funds for the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan’s nationally recognized community programs and services that can help prevent kidney disease. Studies show that 70 percent of kidney disease is preventable. The National Kidney Foundation of Michigan hopes to raise $550,000 at the 2015 Kidney Ball.

 Tickets for the event are $250 per guest and can be purchased by visiting the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan’s website nkfm.org/kidneyball, or by calling the NKFM at 800-482-1455.
