Bridging the PK Deficiency Community

We are proud to announce the merger of the two primary nonprofits serving the PK deficiency community, Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency Foundation and Thrive with Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency Organization, to one combined organization entitled Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency International Alliance (PKDIA). Pyruvate kinase deficiency is an ultra-rare, genetic, hemolytic anemia that affects people and families of all ethnicities from around the world. Knowing that families living with PKD have contacted us from Tibet to Australia, Brazil to Canada, we are excited to extend our work internationally with hopes of finding country-specific PKD ambassadors.
