My Great Strides Story
Our family has a tiny but mighty warrior! My granddaughter Carter was born almost 11 months ago with Cystic Fibrosis. Her genetic mutation is rare and right now they have not found a drug protocol that will help her. She has a beautiful smile and lights up our hearts!
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. You too can help be it by a donation or just join our team and track your steps every step toward a cure makes a difference .
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.
