Who We Are
Founded in 1964, the KIDNEY TRANSPLANT/DIALYSIS ASSOCIATION, INC. (KT/DA),
is an all-volunteer, patient-run, non-profit organization made up of kidney dialysis and transplant patients,
kidney donors, their families and friends, and health professionals. Our officers are themselves kidney
patients or spouses of kidney patients. Now with over 2,200 members across New England, as well as throughout
the country, the KT/DA is dedicated to providing financial aid, information, and emotional
support to chronic renal disease patients and their families.
We pay no salaries or rents, so, except for expenses like postage, telephone and printing, all funds
we raise go to benefit kidney patients directly. Our motto is "Patients Helping Patients."
