A Swing of Hope: Join Us in Changing Lives

Dear LinkedIn community,

?Imagine a silent threat affecting millions, lurking undetected until it's almost too late. This isn't a plot for a thriller—it's the reality of kidney disease in America today. On March 31, 2025, at the picturesque Deerwood Country Club, we have a chance to change this story. The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) Houston Golf Classic isn't just a tournament; it's a lifeline, a beacon of hope for the 37 million Americans battling kidney disease, many unaware they're even fighting.

Why This Matters—More Than You Know

Every stroke on the green, every sponsorship pledge, ripples out to touch lives in profound ways:

• It's the relief on a mother's face when she learns her child can access life-saving treatment.
• It's the moment a doctor can offer hope instead of despair.
• It's the breakthrough in research that could prevent countless future diagnoses.

Your participation does more than fill a scorecard—it fills hearts with hope and bodies with renewed strength.

A Personal Plea

I've seen firsthand the devastation kidney disease can wreak—and the miracles that support like yours can create. This isn't just about golf. It's about giving someone a second chance at life, about turning "no hope" into "new hope." Will you stand with us? Will you be the difference between despair and dignity for a family facing kidney disease?
