We are a group of 13 year olds from National Academy For Learning Bangalore who are spreading awareness on chronic kidney disease. Our project name is KIDNEEDS. We are doing this as a part of the International Changemaker Olympiad which empowers kids to tackle a real world problem.
   
We have chosen chronic kidney disease as it is the eighth leading cause of death in India. It is the only disease which affects financially and physiologically. It could potentially affect every part of our body. It is associated with a tremendous economic burden as well. Overall, 5-10 million people die from kidney disease annually.

We are going to conduct two health talks at our school NAFL and at Brigade Gateway Apartment in collaboration with NU Hospitals. The funds collected will be given to the NU Hospital Charity Fund. Approximately 10 lakh rupees is needed for the end to end treatment of a kidney disease. Please support us financially by making a small contribution towards the treatment cost of an underprivileged child.

We believe that the youth can make this world a better place by saving the living bean.
