Dear Friends and Family,

We are just two months away from the Wilmington Great Strides walk. Please join me this spring and help raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.  Katie and thousands of other CF patients had their lives changed for the better when Trikafta was approved in 2019.  I cannot fully explain the positive impact this new treatment has had on Katie's health and wellbeing.  She, Drew and Simon ride bikes together and she is able to participate in all family activities.  What a beautiful gift.  

As thankful as we are, there are still people with CF whose mutations are not compatible with Trikafta or other modulators, so we cannot rest until a similar treatment is found for ALL CF patients.  Every donation you have made in the past has had an impact on the lives of thousands with CF.  Let's keep striding toward a future where CF stands for "Cure Found."  This work will be done when everyone with CF can breathe easily. 

Please support my team! Sometime between now and Saturday May 4, please go for a walk, bike ride, run or some other activity in your community. Dedicate your time outdoors to all those with CF and make a donation to our team to honor your activity and support those who are fighting to breathe more easily. Together we can make a real difference.

With gratitude,

Eileen & Mike
