Hi everyone!
It's hard to believe its been 20 years since we started fundraising for the Great Strides Walk to Cure Cystic Fibrosis! We are so thankful to have great friends and family who have supported Sam for all of these years!
We are excited to tell you that your donations are working and making a real difference. Sam's life changed in an awesome, amazing way. Thanks to your donations, the CF Foundation was able to fund the development and discovery of the breakthrough drug, Trikafta. Trikafta partially corrects the defective CF gene to treat the underlying cause of CF. Sam's health has improved in more ways than we could have imagined.
Trikafta is making a tremendous improvement on Sam's quality of life. He is a sophomore at Penn State University and excelling both academically and socially. Trikafta is not a cure and we are more anxious than ever for bigger and better treatments to help him and everyone with CF. We truly see the cure in sight.
We will not be walking in the Great Strides event this year, but we hope you will continue to support Sam by making a donation to the CF Foundation.
Your support means more than you know.
Thank you, Dave, Tiffany, Jack & Sam Underwood
