The Ponseti International Association for the Advancement of Clubfoot Treatment (PIA) was established to improve the treatment of children suffering from the crippling deformity of clubfoot in countries throughout the world.

Over 150,000 children are born with clubfoot each year. Many of them may spend a lifetime hobbling on painfully crooked feet because they cannot get proper care. For them this easily curable disability will turn into a lifelong burden. In many instances they will be unable to get an education or to lead a normal life. We can can help these children and their families, if we act now!

Thanks to the lifelong dedication of a remarkable UI physician, Dr. Ignacio Ponseti, there is an effective, inexpensive treatment that can restore 99% of these children to a normal life. Dr. Ponseti perfected a nonsurgical method of treating infants with clubfoot - the "Ponseti method" - using precise manipulations and casting. There are many children who need the Ponseti treatment and if they are treated early enough they never experience life with a painful disability. With only $250 you can help completely cure a child with clubfeet in a developing country.

You can help change a child’s life, you can help change a family's life, you can make the world a better place. We thank you for joining the Ponseti movement and for being a champion. We race and fundraise so kids around the world can walk, run, and go to school.
