Hi All,
It's that time again - time for the Cystic Fibrosis Hagerstown Great Strides walk to raise funds for vital services and programs, advocacy and research to help people with Cystic Fibrosis. As you all know, my nephew, Austin was born with CF. This is a disease with many symptoms, including chronic congestion, coughing, digestive issues, and infections. To help Austin with his fight against CF, he must endure numerous medications, nebulizer treatments, chest physical therapy, and hospital visits.
Cystic Fibrosis does not receive any federal funding. Great Strides is a huge fundraiser for CF. The first Great Strides walk I attended was in Annapolis, in 2001 and I've been participating every year, including creating my own "Team Feets" in Hagerstown.
To participate, just click on the "join our Team" button. From there, you can make a donation and start fundraising. If you prefer, you can also make a donation by clicking the "Donate to Heather" button. By joining our Great Strides team and making a donation, you will part of a tenacious and passionate group of people committed to ending this disease. Together, let's make CF stand for Cure Found!
Thank you!!
Heather
