As most of you know my granddaughter, Charlotte, has cystic fibrosis. So you can understand why this fundraiser is so important to me, her and her family. She does her breathing treatments morning and night to loosen mucus, pills before meals and snacks to help process fat & protein and feeding tube during the night. Despite all of that she is a smart, funny, loving normal soon to be 9 year old girl. Every donation no matter how big or small will help her and others with CF breath a little easier.  Thank you in advance for your help!!

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.

Working alongside the CF community, the CF Foundation has fostered the development of more than a dozen CF treatments and helped add decades of life for people with CF. Yet, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies. Our vision is a cure for every person with cystic fibrosis – a life free from the burden of this disease – and we will not leave anyone behind.
