Jeff has been involved with the PKD Foundation of Canada for many years, beginning as a volunteer for his local chapter and Walk Coordinator in Toronto. His life has been deeply impacted by polycystic kidney disease (PKD) – both his mother and grandmother were diagnosed with the disease when Jeff was young. As a result he has always been passionate about the importance of self-advocacy, volunteerism and community involvement. Having seen the increase in national exposure the PKD Foundation of Canada has received over the last 15 years, Jeff is confident that the Foundation will continue to achieve even greater success and will continue to be a nation-leading support system for those affected by polycystic kidney disease.
