The American Kidney Fund will be participating in Telemundo's Feria de la Familia (Family Fair) event on August 12th from 10am to 6pm. We are looking for volunteers with fluency in the Spanish language that can translate throughout the event, OR bilngual volunteers with any medical background that can perform free blood pressure and glucose screenings and explain the results to participants. All equipment will be provided.
This event is part of a national effort to increase awareness of kidney disease and its two leading risk factors (diabetes and high blood pressure), while encouraging individuals to get and stay healthy.
Volunteers are extraordinary people who reach outside the limits of expected financial compensation, and their normal obligations, to contribute their time and service to a cause they believe will benefit the lives of others. We greatly appreciate you and look forward to working with you in the fight against kidney disease!
