Lincoln Dialysis gives $1,000 to Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois

[April 30, 2013]  DaVita, the kidney care division of DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. (NYSE: DVA) and a leading provider of kidney care services, announced a $1,000 contribution to Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois.

Earlier this year, DaVita Lincoln Dialysis presented the Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois with a $1,000 check as part of the "DaVita Way of Giving," the company's local charitable giving initiative, which is distributing more than $1 million to help nonprofit organizations throughout the United States grow and thrive.

Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that strives to address issues of poverty in the community and provide resources for those in need -- like creating Logan Mason Public Transportation after recognizing a need for public transportation within the counties.

DaVita Lincoln Dialysis chose to donate to Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois because of the organization's dedication to transporting residents who might not be able to travel otherwise.

DaVita, a leading provider of kidney care services, is committed to improving the quality of life for those diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and is dedicated to spreading ripples of citizen leadership through its "Trilogy of Care" -- caring for its patients, caring for each other and caring for the world.
