Ignite the Future: A Campaign to Clear the Way
Sparking Progress in PCD Research, Care, and Treatment
For more than 20 years, the PCD Foundation has been a driving force behind groundbreaking efforts to better understand, diagnose, and treat Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD). We haven’t just supported discovery—we’ve built the infrastructure that enables patients to access expert care and participate in cutting-edge research.
Now, we’re taking the next bold step – building a national therapeutic network to accelerate clinical trials and drive new treatments—and, ultimately, a cure.
Why Ignite the Future?
At the PCD Foundation, we’re thinking big.
We’ve gathered the brightest minds in respiratory researchers poised to deliver breakthroughs that could reshape the landscape of rare disease treatment. These discoveries hold the potential to revolutionize the lives of people affected by PCD. But science alone isn’t enough. We need the resources to turn bold ideas into real solutions. That’s why we launched Ignite the Future—a visionary $5 million campaign over the next three years to fund our most ambitious work to date.
Your Support Powers Progress
Philanthropy is the spark that will ignite the progress necessary to advance our work. Every gift, regardless of size, fuels our ability to expand our efforts and accelerate change.
The campaign is built on three core pillars that reflect the heart of our mission:
Healthier Future: Frontier programs that advance scientific investigation and clinical trials to ensure a healthier future.
Optimizing Clinical Care: Specialized care and accelerated research aimed at promising interventions and cures.
Community Support: Strengthening and supporting our patient population, ensuring each voice is heard and all have the opportunity to thrive.
