NEW YORK CITY, March 22, 2017 – For the annual kickoff of Kidney Walk events in March, the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) is setting one of its highest goals yet – $10,000,000 – based on record-breaking corporate team fundraising in 2016 led by LogistiCare.
The nation’s largest non-emergency medical transportation manager has emerged as NKF’s first company to raise more than $100,000 through a single year of Kidney Walks. LogistiCare is one of eight National Teams that encourage Kidney Walk fundraising and participation across multiple cities and states.
“We are so appreciative of the support LogistiCare has provided to our Kidney Walks across the country,” said Kevin Longino, CEO of National Kidney Foundation. “LogistiCare’s ongoing commitment to people with kidney disease, both in their business and in their charitable contributions, is an example of good corporate citizenship at its best,” added Longino.
LogistiCare’s commitment to helping people fight kidney disease is rooted in its core mission. Each year, LogistiCare enables more than 13 million trips to dialysis centers – some 20 percent of the nearly 70 million healthcare trips it manages annually for private, commercial and government-assisted riders.
