The Kidney Patients Association Barrie and South Simcoe: Proudly Independent! Listen up, folks - the Kidney Patients Association Barrie and South Simcoe wants to set the record straight. Despite any rumors or assumptions out there, we have never been affiliated with the Kidney Foundation of Canada, Stevenson Memorial Hospital, or the Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre. That's right, we're a completely independent organization, flying solo and doing our own thing. No strings attached, no orders from on high - just a dedicated group of kidney crusaders, working hard to support our local community.
Our mission is simple: to provide top-notch resources, education, and advocacy for individuals living with kidney disease in the Barrie and South Simcoe region. And we accomplish that mission through the tireless efforts of our volunteer board and members, without any oversight or control from external organizations. We're proud to be our own entity, answering to no one but the kidney patients we serve. Our priorities, programming, and decision-making are determined right here, by the people in our community. No outside interference, no divided loyalties - just a laser-focused commitment to making life better for those affected by kidney disease. So there you have it, folks. The Kidney Patients Association Barrie and South Simcoe: 100% independent and 100% dedicated to our local kidney warriors. No affiliations, no compromises - just us, doing our thing and making a difference.
