Vision: Our ultimate goal is to find a cure for PKU
Nutrition
Formula and food coverage are the first priorities of the Iowa PKU
Foundation. Through legislative action
with our collaborative efforts, we will fight for PKU families to secure the
necessary funding for their formula and low-protein food.
Education
Understanding
the dietary nuances for PKU families is imperative for a balanced life. We offer a brochure, web-site, and a
newsletter to support the Iowa PKU community.
Family Support
It
is also critical that PKU families share their experiences with each
other. Therefore, it is our goal to
offer networking opportunities including annual summer and winter
get-togethers, as well as e-mail links in order to facilitate sharing and
caring.
The
Iowa PKU Foundation is committed to the support of appropriate research
initiatives to better understand PKU and eventually find a cure. A portion of our fundraising efforts supports
PKU research.
