Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers make the work of The Kidney TRUST possible. The success of the TRUST’s chronic kidney disease (CKD) screening program depends on their time and talents. The TRUST will provide the necessary orientation and training to perform volunteer roles, which are described below. We are recruiting a pool of volunteers that can be called upon intermittently, based upon their availability, for our ongoing events held on both weekends and weekdays.
- Registration
Greeting attendees and talking with them about CKD, the screening process, and The Kidney TRUST. Assisting attendees in completing the Participant Questionnaire and ensuring they are screened in order of registration. - CKD Education
Explaining screening results to event attendees and educating them about recommended actions based on their results. Raising awareness about kidney disease risk factors and steps they can take to protect their kidney health.
