By participating in Great Strides as a national corporate team, we
are making a difference in the communities that we work in and at the same
time, we are making an incredible difference to the lives of all people with
cystic fibrosis (CF).
Great Strides is the CF Foundation’s largest fundraising event and
we are walking as a company this year to help find a cure for CF! We would like
to invite you to join us. You’ll be helping to achieve our national corporate
team goal while having fun in your offices, and engaging locally with your
community.
By utilizing the same results-driven approach of a successful,
for-profit company, the CF Foundation has created an innovative business model
that is making a difference in the lives of those with cystic fibrosis. Today,
nearly half of all people with CF are adults over the age of 18 and we can be a
part of advancing this progress and helping to find a treatment or cure for ALL
people with CF!
We’re proud to be a part of this game-changing and efficient
organization. So, sign up today! Here’s how you can participate:
1. Create or renew your team! Click on ‘Find a Walk/Team’; type in
your zip-code, select your walk and follow the prompts. Don’t forget to select
that you are a part of our national corporate team.
2. You can join any of our existing teams as a walker or virtually

Important note on Attendance at Foundation Events:
Infections can exacerbate CF symptoms and worsen lung function, so we ask attendees at Foundation-sponsored events to observe the following best practices to reduce the risk of germ transmission:
To further reduce the risk of cross-infection, the Foundation’s attendance policy recommends that all people with CF maintain a safe 6-foot distance from each other at all times while attending an outdoor Foundation-sponsored event. All Great Strides walks are non-smoking events.
