MISSION STATEMENT: The
purpose of KidneyTexas, Inc. is to provide funding to
improve the methods of treatment, the search for a cure and
prevention of kidney disease and other kindred or
contributory diseases; and to develop more adequate
provision for the care of persons suffering from such
diseases.
STATISTICS: Debilitating
kidney diseases impact approximately 20 million people in
the United
States today.
Groups at high risk include African Americans, Hispanics,
senior citizens and people with diabetes. In Texas,
there are over 30,000 people on dialysis and 4,000 on a
transplant list. The number of patients on dialysis is
anticipated to double this decade.
HISTORY: Since
1999, the dedicated volunteers of KidneyTexas, Inc. have
worked in tandem with our generous underwriters to raise
over $2.5 million for local efforts to improve the ability
to diagnose and manage kidney disease.
Each fall KidneyTexas, Inc. hosts its Luncheon & Style Show
in an effort to raise money for designated beneficiaries and
awareness for a disease that affects millions of people each
year. The success of this event depends heavily upon the
contributions and dedication of our Dallas business and
community leaders, and we're asking for your support.
