United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation

The United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation (UMDF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting individuals affected by mitochondrial diseases, which are genetic disorders that impact the mitochondria—the energy-producing structures in our cells. The foundation raises awareness, funds research for better treatments, and provides education and resources for patients and families. Through advocacy, community-building, and collaboration with healthcare professionals, UMDF aims to improve the quality of life for those impacted and advance scientific understanding of mitochondrial diseases.
