There’s no force as strong as a mom on a mission. After learning of her son Ryker’s diagnosis of #PompeDisease, Melanie McKay got to work. She founded Ryker's Foundation for Pompe Disease to advocate for babies born with infantile-onset Pompe Disease, used her voice to encourage states to add the condition to their newborn screening panel, and so much more.

Melanie, we are humbled by your bravery and are honored that you are a 2020 #TORCHAwards recipient. We can’t wait to hear from you on August 27!
