A local woman is continuing to be an advocate and help raise awareness for the Kidney Foundation of Canada.
myFM spoke with Nikki Wagar, who told us how she first became involved with the Kidney Foundation.
During March, the Six Degree Challenge has been taking place, raising awareness of the connections we all have with kidney disease.
This challenge also raises crucial funds that help with research, education and programs.
Wagar says through this, we are helping make patients feeling empowered and supporting their journey through resorces and programs to help them live with kidney disease.
Today, World Kidney Day, March 10, the Foundation is hosting a 24-hour day of giving. To learn more or to make a donation, you can visit www.sixdegreechallenge.com
