Mark your calendars, Dallas — on Saturday, October 3rd, Thrive with Peritoneal Dialysis is lacing up for the National Kidney Foundation’s Dallas Kidney Walk 2026 at The Sound @ Cypress Waters in Coppell, and we want our whole community walking with us!
Check-in starts at 8:00 AM, the walk kicks off at 9:30 AM. Every single step raises real money for kidney research, patient programs, and the fight for earlier diagnoses. This is the kind of morning that reminds you why we do what we do.
If you’ve ever felt like PD makes you invisible in a room full of “normal” 5Ks and charity runs, this one’s different. This walk is your community.
It’s caregivers pushing wheelchairs alongside their person.
It’s patients who did their exchange that morning and still showed up.
It’s people who’ve never met a stranger because everyone here already understands.
Thriving on PD was never meant to mean doing it alone, and a morning like this proves it out loud.
We’re showing up with something for you, too. Thrive will be handing out Wellness Bags at our booth — and yes, every single one will include a Kink Free PD™! Because a tubing solution that just works deserves to be in more patients’ hands. We’re hoping to load these bags up with even more goodies from our sponsor partners, so come say hi for the full reveal!
And if you can’t make it to Coppell in person, you can still be part of this. Donate to Team Thrive here →. Every dollar goes directly toward the National Kidney Foundation’s work. Their research, education, and support for patients and families navigating kidney disease every single day. No gift is too small, and every single one moves the walk total closer to something real.
This is also the perfect moment to talk about what got us here in the first place. Thrive exists because comfort and dignity shouldn’t be optional extras in PD life — they should be the expectation. That’s the whole idea behind the PD Flow Belt™. It’s built so patients can move through their day without their treatment dictating every motion. And our Kink Free PD™ is built so one less thing goes wrong on a day that already asks a lot of you. Products built by people who’ve actually lived this — not just studied it.
So here’s the ask: come walk with us on October 3rd. Bring your people. Grab a Wellness Bag. Say hi at the booth. And if Dallas isn’t on your map this year, donate to Team Thrive and know you showed up anyway.
Thank you to the National Kidney Foundation and the Dallas Kidney Walk team for building a space where this community gets to be loud, proud, and together. We’ll see you at Cypress Waters.
