Cala-Dece Traub

Thank you for visiting my fundraiser page. As you may or may not know Cystic Fibrosis became more personal for me when my niece was diagnosed in March of 2017, at just a week old. Thanks the the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s funding  of research she is receiving treatments that improve her quality of life and her body’s ability to function through the affects of her disease. Myself and my family are walking this year in an effort to raise funds for Elliott and other people with the disease to continue receiving these life improving and prolonging treatments, and eventually a cure.

Our team name, Elliott’s Salty Squad is a nod to the presence of salt on the skin of CFers, and a little laugh for how salty our personalities can be. Donors to our fundraiser will receive a special salty squad gift from me as a thank you. Elliott gets some super cool swag if you donate directly through her link, so I encourage you to donate there instead of to me, or in addition to me if you’d like.  

From the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation:

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. Will you join me? Please consider donating to my Great Strides fundraising campaign today!

Please support me!

 We are at a pivotal moment in the history of cystic fibrosis and your support matters. Your gift will help add tomorrows to the lives of people with cystic fibrosis by supporting groundbreaking research and medical progress towards a cure. Please help me reach my fundraising goal!
