We are so excited to celebrate our 15th year! So much has happened that we need to share with you. We have reached our million dollars for research mark, are working with 7 Pharmaceutical companies going into phase 3 trials for IGAN, working closely with FDA and donated an additional $40,000 for research. Chances are if you are reading this, you were a part of making this happen.
The most exciting news is we have decided to partner with Nephcure Kidney International with intensions of a merger in the coming year! Lenny Erlanger, our CEO and my dear friend has worked with me on this much needed growth. As with any foundation in order to grow to the next level you need to rely on the experience of someone greater and Nephcure is a leader in the kidney space.
To celebrate all of these accolades we would love for you to come this year and celebrate our big 15! We have lots of fun and surprises planned for the entire family. So lace up those sneakers, bring your family, friends, dogs and beach chairs and lets make a difference in the lives of so many with kidney disease.

Love Remains, Tal Wilkenfeld’s debut solo album for BMG, is a testament to the celebrated bassist’s unconventional journey.While a dedicated fan base may already know Tal for her work with Jeff Beck, Prince, The Allman Bros., Herbie Hancock and Mick Jagger, Love Remains reveals a new side of Tal as a songwriter and singer with skills on par with her legend-in-the making musicianship. This new album’s 10 song collection displays the Australian-born, LA-based musician as a talented vocalist, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer. The album was co-produced by Tal and Paul Stacey (Oasis, The Black Crowes) and features guitarist Blake Mills, keyboardists Benmont Tench (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers) & Zac Rae (Death Cab For Cutie) and drummer Jeremy Stacey.
Tal’s range of talents is on full display, and she achieves a stunning balance between instrumental prowess and exquisite song craft. Jackson Browne, who offered creative guidance throughout the process of making the album, was executive producer.With few models of an instrumentalist turned singer-songwriter, Tal has broken extraordinary new ground. As Jackson Browne acknowledged,“I can’t think of another instrumentalist that has ventured into the area that Tal now has, when it comes to writing and singing songs from her own experience.”“I began singing and writing songs with words when I first picked up a guitar at 14,” said Tal. “When I arrived in the States a couple of years later, I quickly became fixated on guitar and then the bass and I stepped away from lyric writing. My bass became both my weapon and my shield, but that ran its course. That’s when I began writing song with lyrics again and creating this album.”After relocating stateside from her native Sydney, Australia at just 16-years-old, Tal made believers of rock royalty and fans with her uncommon combination of melodic sensibilities and technical prowess.
