J. Harrison Ghee to Host NYC Kidney Walk for National Kidney Foundation

J. Harrison Ghee, who has won both Tony and Grammy Awards, is set to host the New York City Kidney Walk on November 8. This annual event will take place at Foley Square, where Ghee, currently on the kidney transplant waiting list, will share their personal experiences to promote awareness about organ donation.

The Kidney Walk, organized by the National Kidney Foundation (NKF), unites patients, caregivers, and advocates for a day filled with walking, live entertainment, community activities, and giveaways. This year, the walk will also recognize kidney advocate Matt Barr, who will be honored for his dedication to NKF as he celebrates his 20-year anniversary of receiving a kidney transplant and his fundraising achievements exceeding $1 million for kidney-related initiatives. The event is free to the public and encourages participants to register to walk, donate, or volunteer through kidney.org.
