We are a non-profit organization dedicated to helping improve the lives of children in Jamaica diagnosed with kidney disease.

Who We Are

The Jamaica Kidney Kids Foundation (JKKF) is a charitable organization founded in July 2012 with the goal to improve the care of children with kidney disease across Jamaica, especially those who are financially challenged. The brainchild of Founder and Chairperson, Dr. Maolynne Miller, Jamaica’s first paediatric nephrologist, the Foundation is also overseen by Directors personally appointed for their dedication to the welfare of these children: Mr. Williams Tavares-Finson, Mr. Craig Chin, Mr. Andrew Cocking, Ms. Erin Hayle and Mrs. Trudy Francis.
