Thank you for visiting our Great Strides Fundraising site, we are so glad to have your support. Please help us to find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis by joining our team, walking or running with us, make a donation, and help us spread the word about CF.
As most of you already know, my name is Jackson Rouse, and I have Cystic Fibrosis. I was diagnosed when I was a baby, so I don't remember life without it. Mom says I was starting to get sick when we finally figured it out. Thankfully we found the best Doctor and he's been helping me ever since. We go see him and my whole CF Care Team all the time, they tell me I'm doing a great job. My parents and my Doctor talk a lot about the CF Foundation and all the work it does to help keep me healthy.
I'm really lucky to have a great CF Team and all of my family and friends helping and supporting me. They help me do my breathing treatments everyday and remind me to take my medicine (30 pills a day!). Plus, we get together every year to celebrate at Great Strides. It's like a great party and a parade all in one. We celebrate how healthy I am and all the work that the CF Foundation does to help find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis.
I hope you'll come and join our team and celebrate with us.
Thanks,
Jackson
A message from the CF 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. We will not leave anyone behind.
Please support me!
We are at a pivotal moment in the history of cystic fibrosis and your support matters. With your help, we can invest our resources in research today, while raising funds for tomorrow, to ensure we have what it takes to reach the finish line. Together, we can make CF stand for Cure Found. Please help me reach my fundraising goal!
