My Great Strides Story
My name is Andrew and I am a local child living with CF. As a CF'er, I have to take extra precautions. Like wearing a mask, I have to get vaccines, and have to keep distance.
Cystic fibrosis affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. The symptoms can vary from person to person, and as people with CF live longer than ever before, their disease can become more complicated, leading to serious health issues.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has made extraordinary progress — including fostering the development of more than a dozen CF treatments — but these treatments are not a cure and not everyone can benefit from them. We must keep going. In July 2021, I started taking Trikafta. Trikafta was approved and I jumped on taking it. until CF stands for Cure Found.
Your support makes a difference.
By donating to my fundraising goal, you will help advance our mission for a cure for all. Please consider joining us and helping make CF stand for Cure Found.
With the continued support from family, friends, and the help of the community, we STRIVE to find a CURE for CF.
