Optimist Pomona

The Pomona Optimist Club is driven by a dream that one day, every person with cystic fibrosis will have the chance to live a long, healthy life. You can help us reach that goal!

We CHOOSE OPTIMISM, and our commitment to this goal has focused our efforts on:

• Bringing out the best in youth,
• Bringing out the best in our communities, and
• Bringing out the best in ourselves.

We encourage you to also CHOOSE OPTIMISM and to help us help the CF Community by donating to our team participating in the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Great Strides Inland Empire walk on June 8th, 2024.

Despite the unprecedented progress the CF Foundation has fostered over the years, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies, either because their disease is too advanced or because their genetic mutations will not respond.  Those who can take current therapies continue to face challenging complications - leading to hospitalizations, missed school and work, and significant interruptions in their daily routine. Many children and adults with CF still face the sobering prospect of a shortened lifespan.

As our Optimist Creed says, “Promise yourself to talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.”  Join our team in supporting the health, happiness, and prosperity of people with CF and their families as you support our team.
