You can touch lives through music by triggering an emotional appeal that can bring positive outcomes. You can help the Philippine Society of Nephrology (PSN) enrich their StopCKD campaign by sharing with us your musical talent and create a song that best embodies our STOP CKD advocacy. Join our World Kidney Day 2024 Kidney Tunes Jingle-Making Contest and submit a 3 – 4 minute music video.
The STOP CKD advocacy aims to involve and equip primary care physician, as well as lay people with better knowledge on how to prevent kidney failure among individuals at risk for chronic kidney disease. We hope that primary care physicians can screen them properly by monitoring serum creatinine and testing for urine protein/urine albumin creatinine ratio and use that information to provide early and appropriate management of CKD to prevent disease progression and kidney failure. As for the lay people, the Stop CKD Advocacy also provides you with a general knowledge on how to take good care of your kidneys by emphasizing the 8 golden rules of kidney health (click the link below for the full details).
Apart from bragging rights and a chance to be featured in the official music video of the STOP CKD advocacy of PSN, the winner will take home PHP 80,000 in cash. The winner will be announced during the World Kidney Day culminating activity at Laus Event Center, City of San Fernando, Pampanga on March 14, 2024.
