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, and for Marcus.
On the outside, Marcus looks like your average 21 year old. He works and goes to school full time. Plays video games and hangs out with his friends. What you don't see are the breathing treatments he has to do twice a day. The abundance of pills he is swalloing before every meal, along with other daily medicines. All of this just to maintain staying healthy.
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!
