May 8, 2018

More than 500 walkers raised nearly $45,000 during the 10th annual Southern Delaware Kidney Walk April 29 at Cape Henlopen State Park. One of 100 community walks sponsored by the National Kidney Foundation, the event is not only important to raise money but to also raise awareness, said chairwoman Kristy-An Ferracci. She donated one of her kidneys to her husband, Michael, 11 years ago. In Delaware, 2,175 people are on dialysis and 400 are on a waiting list for kidney transplant.
