Boston Walk for PKD 2026

What is PKD? Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is one of the most common, life-threatening genetic diseases, affecting generations of families and often leading to dialysis and kidney transplants. Why Walk? The Boston Walk for PKD is a community-driven event that raises funds and awareness for PKD research. With the help of volunteers, walkers, and supporters, we strive to find treatments and a cure for this devastating disease. Did you know that one in 500 people has PKD, yet it remains relatively unknown? Together, we can change that. Event Highlights: • Educational Activities: Informative booths to learn more about PKD. • Entertainment: Enjoy a live DJ, refreshments from local vendors, and fun activities for kids. • Community Spirit: Share stories and support one another as we walk for a cure. • Prizes and Drawings: Exciting raffle prizes to be won. How to Participate: • Pre-Register: Form a team or register as an individual. • Fundraise or Donate: 100% of donations go directly to PKD research. • Bring the Family: Kid and pet-friendly activities for everyone to enjoy. Event Schedule: • 9:30 AM: Registration opens • 10:30 AM: Walk begins This event is FREE, but your donations and fundraising efforts are greatly appreciated. Every step you take helps bring us closer to a cure. Invite friends and family to walk with you—every participant helps raise awareness for PKD. Let's walk together and make a difference! (Wear comfortable walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing.) Please contact for inquiries: bostonwalk@pkdcure.org, fundraising@pkdcure.org
