Pair of NephCure Walks Raise Over $27K

photoOn Saturday, September 17 a pair of NephCure Walks in Montreal and Atlanta raised over $27,000 in the fight against the kidney diseases FSGS and Nephrotic Syndrome.

A three-peat success, the Montreal Walk drew over 150 walkers to the Parc Maissoneuve, raising over $17,000.  It included a fun-filled day complete with raffle, entertainment and another great event for NephCure Canada. 

Special thanks to Rita Spadafora and her family for organizing and Montreal Children's for their help and support. 

photoIn Atlanta, GA, the second annual NephCure Walk was held at a new location on a perfect early fall day.  Over 70  participants helped raise nearly $10,000. 

Special thanks to the Roe, Parnes and Moor families for their help organizing, and to Emory Children's for their support.
