VacancyLove.com CEO, Ajay Matta interviews Richard Salick, co-founder of National Kidney Foundation.
The organizations main purpose in the early years was to help victims of kidney disease and their families, and to raise money to fund research. Throughout the 1950s the Foundation distributed informational literature to the public in order to raise awareness about the dangers of kidney disease. At the same time, a paper entitled How to Form a Chapter was prepared and mailed to interested individuals and groups around the country. The first major national fund raising campaign took place in 1956 and was a complete success, raising a record $400,000. The Foundation was quickly gaining national recognition as an important health agency.
