Welcome to our Great Strides page. My nephew, Caden, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis shortly after his birth in December 2017. This rare genetic disorder affects little Caden's lungs, pancreas, liver, and kidneys. As Caden will fight this for the rest of his life, we hope to engage our community and grow awareness.
Our family and friends are participating in the Cleveland Great Strides walk and you're more than welcome to join! After a hiatus in 2020 and a virtual walk in 2021, we started back to in-person walks last year. We've consistently been a Top 3 funding team and hope to do that again this year!

There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends, and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. I walk for them and hope you will support me in my efforts. Great Strides is a fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF and their families.
Real progress has been for those who have CF, but there is still no cure for this devastating disease and many lives are cut far too short. By walking today, I am helping add tomorrows to the lives of people living with cystic fibrosis. Will you join me? Please consider making a donation to my Great Strides fundraising campaign today!
Please support me!
