About KIDNEY FRIENDS HAWAII INC

Kidney Friends Hawaii Inc is a Honolulu-based 501(c)(3) support organization, founded to support programs and activities in Hawaii that promote research, education, treatment and cure of kidney disease and organ donation. The organization was established as a tax-exempt charity in 2006 and operates donor-facing programs that collect vehicle and clothing donations to fund local kidney-related programs.

Kidney Friends runs practical community fundraising channels — including the Kidney Cars vehicle-donation effort and multiple clothing/drop-off locations across Oʻahu — and directs proceeds to support kidney-health services and awareness in the state. In recent tax filings (fiscal years 2022–2024) the organization reported operating revenue in the mid-hundreds of thousands of dollars and continued program activity supporting local kidney-related partners.
