Alexandria Popores

It's almost May, and you know what that means - it's cystic fibrosis awareness month! The time we shout a little bit louder for a cure. Hi everyone! My name is Alex and I am living with CF.   

I have so many fond memories of attending CF event fundraisers, meeting new people, making new connections all for a wonderful cause - to make CF stand for cure found.  I am so fortunate to have the support of  my family and friends - in fact, my college roommate Bree is the Sodium Chloride Striders Team Captain :)   I am so thankful for all of the research and support the CFF has made possible and want to do my part to continue to help spread the word and continue that good work.

There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, and friends who struggle every day just to breathe. I walk for them. Will you join me and support my fundraising goal?

Real progress has been made for those who have CF, but there is still no cure for this devastating disease and many lives are cut far too short. We’ve come so far, but there’s still so much work to do. I will not stop striding until all those with cystic fibrosis have a cure. We will not leave anyone behind.  

Please support me!

We are at a pivotal moment in the history of cystic fibrosis and your support matters. With your help, we can invest our resources in research today, while raising funds for tomorrow, to ensure we have what it takes to reach the finish line. Together, we can make CF stand for Cure Found. Please help me reach my fundraising goal!
