The entire region of RVM clinics pulled together - not only to raise money for the NKF, but also to raise awareness about kidney disease and the many services RVM provides to assist those affected by it.</p>
<p>During the Kidney Walk, RVM nurses, technicians, social workers, and even patients educated the community about everything from the locations of RVM centers to the RV CARE program. Success at this event is due largely to the efforts of RVM's Director of Marketing, Kim Travis, and Marketing Intern Nadia Khamis, who designed t-shirts and prizes. Thank you Kim and Nadia - from your Dallas/Fort Worth RVM family!</p>
