My Great Strides Story

Nearly 40,000 people in the United States have cystic fibrosis: a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, and friends who face the sobering prospect of a shortened lifespan. I walk for them.

I walk for Isaiah. We thought we had a healthy baby until he was 10 days old and we got the call. He has a chronic illness called Cystic Fibrosis. We had no family history, and no idea what it was. We were so scared! Now we have so much knowledge and information thanks to the CF Foundation. Isaiah has so much hope for a long healthy life because people before us have raised funds to research new drug therapies. We now hope within his lifetime there will be a cure and that we were able, with your support, to find it. 

You can support Isaiah!

By supporting my fundraising goal, you have an opportunity in your lifetime to be part of ending this disease. Please consider joining us and help make medical history.
