NKF has a generous sponsor who donates her home for a week during the summer to an individual with kidney disease and up to five family members. This gives the family an opportunity to have a vacation they could not otherwise afford; giving time away from the business of everyday life to spend with their immediate family members. This vacation comes with passes to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and a gift card from a local grocery store.

Thank you to everyone for taking the time to fill out the applications. This year's 2009 Santa Cruz Getaway individual has been chosen. For more information on future offers please call 415-543-3303 ext. 104 or email infopacific@kidney.org.
