Glenn
and his wife Jen founded The Glenn Foley WINGS Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit
organization that works pro-actively to heighten awareness and education of Polycystic
Kidney Disease (PKD) and organ donation. Glenn’s mother Sue has been battling
PKD since 1971. PKD causes cysts to develop on the kidneys, causing them to enlarge,
thereby hindering the kidney’s filtering ability.
