My Great Strides Story

Great Strides is a fundraising 5k that growing up I have had close connections too. My older brother has been managing his Cystic Fibrosis for over 30 years! 

When Trent was in elementary and middle school our family members would organize a team for Trent in our local area. A beautiful soul of a health teacher would even get a bus load of kids would come to walk! 

Now Jack and I are joining a local team here in Madison for a family who goes to our church! 

For Trinity and Beyond! 

Praise God for the advancement of medicines and technologies that Trent Edberg and his generation of CF patients have helped develop. 

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. By participating in Great Strides, I am helping to end this disease for thousands of people impacted by CF.

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.

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.
