Mel with Jackson (as a baby)
There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. Two of them are my nephews, Jackson and Jacob. I walk for them and hope you will support me in my efforts.
Cystic Fibrosis is a life shortening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system. Real progress has been made in the search for a cure, but the lives of people with CF are still cut far too short.
Please consider making a donation and supporting us at the local Great Strides event on Saturday, May 17, 2014. You’ll feel confident in knowing that your generous gift will be used efficiently and effectively – approximately 90% of every dollar raised goes to support vital CF research, as well as medical and educational programs. Plus, your gift is tax-deductible.
Together, we are adding tomorrows to the lives of people living with CF by supporting the search for a cure.
One day, we would like CF to stand for Cure Found!
