Get involved

Be a hero for those with primary immunodeficiency (PI). Change lives by promoting awareness and taking action throughout your community.

Every voice is needed

According to the National Institutes of Health, there are approximately 500,000 individuals in the U.S. with a primary immunodeficiency. Every year, thousands go undiagnosed. By the simple act of getting involved, you can change this and make a difference. Whether you are just learning about PI, have been diagnosed for decades, are a caregiver or healthcare professional, every voice is needed. And it’s not just individuals who can get involved. Community groups and corporations are encouraged to join forces as volunteers and donors.

Participate in IDF events

IDF hosts support groups and educational events for those living with PI and their caregivers. We also present workshops for healthcare professionals as well as our signature events: Walk for PI, Advocacy Day, and a teen and young adult escape.

Compromised: Life Without Immunity

Witness the impossible decisions faced by those living with primary immunodeficiency (PI) disorders through the Immune Deficiency Foundation's first documentary film. From children to adults, patients and families share their struggles and triumphs, while medical experts provide insight into the fight against these rare diseases. Heartbreaking yet hopeful, this film reveals the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit and the urgent need for greater awareness and support in the medical community.
