Penn KDSAP volunteers speaking with community members at a screening

About Penn KDSAP

A student-led bridge between Penn and Philadelphia communities

Penn KDSAP brings students, physicians, and community organizations together around kidney health screening, education, and service.

Our chapter

Local service within a nationwide movement

Penn’s chapter was founded in 2017. Student volunteers from across the University work with physicians from Penn Medicine and community leaders throughout Philadelphia.

How we work

Partnership comes before programming

Community organizations help shape each collaboration. Penn KDSAP prepares volunteers, coordinates with clinicians, and brings screening and education activities into partner spaces.
