Glenn & Mary Ann Kweder

Once again, my wife and I are walking in memory of our beautiful granddaughter, Kiersten Lee Kandul, who lost her battle with CF at the age of 17. She was a wonderful person who loved life and loved people. In order to help her fellow CFers, she started the KIERSTEN'S BREATH FOR LIFE team in 2013.

For too long, cystic fibrosis, a rare, genetic disease, has robbed people of tomorrows – progressively limiting their ability to breathe and tragically shortening life. There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with CF. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends, and co-workers who struggle every day in the face of this devasting disease.

I walk for them. Will you join me and support my Great Strides 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.

By walking with me in Great Strides, you can help accelerate the Foundation’s pursuit of new therapies and provide vital support to meet the needs of the CF community.

Please support me! 

Your participation will help us get one step closer to ending this terrible disease. Let’s make CF stand for Cure Found.
