Northwest Kidney Kids
Empowering Kidney Kids for Lifelong Success

We want to see every child living with kidney disease thrive.

Northwest Kidney Kids, Inc. was founded in 2006 to provide support and education to children with chronic kidney disease and their family members. NW Kidney Kids is in a unique position because we are the only organization with a focus on serving youth (birth -18) with chronic kidney disease and their families in the Northwest. Kidney disease is a lifelong illness. There is no cure. Children and their families need tools to manage this chronic condition. NW Kidney Kids mission is to offer hope and support to these children and their families. We provide prevention services, educational programs and group activities that empower Kidney Kids to take charge of their health, embrace their future, and achieve lifelong success.

Meet Ronan
At just 35 weeks, Ronan was born with CKD. He spent six weeks in the NICU and went under eleven surgeries. He began peritoneal dialysis at just five days old. Ronan had to have his peritoneal dialysis catheter removed on his first birthday due to a severe infection on the catheter. His little kidney was strong enough to keep him off dialysis. In December of 2018 he had to go back on dialysis at just four and a half years old. In October 2019 Ronan finally got his call for a new kidney! He is recovering well.
