Hey, we're the Dickson family and we're fundraising for the National PKU Alliance in honor of our amazing son, Tucker, who lives with PKU every day.
Tucker was diagnosed with phenylketonuria (PKU) shortly after birth—a rare genetic condition that means his body can't properly break down phenylalanine, an amino acid found in most proteins. Without strict dietary management and ongoing care, PKU can cause serious developmental and neurological challenges. But thanks to early detection, dedicated treatment, and incredible support from our family and community, Tucker is thriving—and we're determined to help make life even better for him and every child and adult with PKU.
We're joining Move Your Pheet again this May to raise awareness and funds for the NPKUA, the leading organization fighting for better treatments, life-changing research, family resources, and ultimately a cure. Every step we take (and every mile Tucker inspires us to move!) brings us closer to a future where PKU no longer limits anyone's dreams.
Your donation—no matter the size—directly supports research breakthroughs, educational programs, family connections, and hope for families like ours. It means the world to us and to Tucker.
Thank you for helping us move our pheets together toward a brighter tomorrow. Let's do this for Tucker and all those living with PKU!
