Mission Statement

NephCure’s mission is to empower people with rare, protein-spilling kidney disease to take charge of their health, while leading the revolution in research, new treatments, and care.

Description

Founded in 2000 by a group of committed patient parents, NephCure has invested more than $40 million in kidney disease research and helped create a landscape where there are now new treatments and more than 60 interventional drug trials for rare kidney disease.

Unique among the major kidney organizations, NephCure is squarely focused on nephrotic syndrome, FSGS, IgAN, and other rare, protein-spilling kidney diseases. NephCure acts as the connector amongst patients and families, healthcare providers, government agencies, industry partners, and other key stakeholders, while also guiding patients to the best care and treatment options possible.

NephCure is a U.S. tax exempt 501(c)(3) public charity established in 2000.
