The story of the American Kidney Fund
From 1971 to the mid 1990s the American Kidney Fund (AKF) relied largely on individual donations to help low-income people with kidney disease.
Starting in 1996 AKF launched a major initiative to raise funds from corporate partners in order to receive the funding they needed. By 2000 they over tripled their revenue.
Don Roy, CFO said, “Switching our emphasis to corporate partners was the real turning point in our organization.”
