Peer Mentors

PKD Connect Peer Mentors provide resources, guidance, motivation, and emotional support to an individual impacted by PKD. Peer mentors are familiar with the difficulties associated with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and are open to sharing their own experience with PKD to support and encourage others.

Volunteer Hours

PKDF volunteers are making a difference in the lives of everyone impacted by PKD. One way we show volunteer impact is by capturing volunteer hours. Volunteer hours = revenue! 

Please submit all volunteer hours associated with supporting your mentees each month using the link posted here. You can submit hours as you go (after each call, etc.) or, you can submit all of your hours at the end of each month. 

 

Submit all volunteer hours associated with mentee support in March.
Submit all volunteer hours associated with mentee support in April.

 

A unique link for submitting volunteer hours associated with attending training calls will be sent to you after the training session. Once you have submitted your hours for attending training, you can delete the link. You will not need to use it again.
