About This Cause

The Peradeniya Kidney Protection Society (PKPS) was established in February 2020 affiliated to the Teaching Hospital of Peradeniya. It was initiated by a group of well-wishers with a goal to help patients with kidney disease attending the Teaching Hospital of Peradeniya. A large number of patients, especially children, with kidney disease are admitted daily to this hospital. It is also the center which conducts the largest number of kidney transplants in children, having performed nearly 200 kidney transplants in them since 2004. Although the government spends a large amount of money to care for these patients, the patients themselves and their families were observed to have additional needs which cannot be expected to be covered by the government. This need was recognized and the PKPS was established to attend to this matter.
