Please help us find a cure.
Please consider supporting Team Amanda May in the fight to find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis!
Amanda just turned 20 and had another hospital free year! She continues to do well since she started an exciting a new medication called Trikafta in January of 2020.
What you see in Amanda is a "healthy" and active girl doing normal young adult things (now in college!!!) What you don't see are the hours each day that she spends doing therapy to keep her lungs clean, multiple pills (around 30 daily), nebulizers and inhalers needed just to maintain her health.
The various medications she takes would not be available without the CF Foundation and your support as CF research receives no government funding. The life expectancy of people with CF continues to increase and we are very hopeful for the future.
Sadly, we continue to lose precious lives to CF every day and we see heartbreaking posts on our online support groups of those taken too soon. That's why your help is needed now more than ever to ensure that a cure is found sooner - rather than later. To learn more about CF and the CF Foundation, visit www.cff.org.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a devastating genetic disease that affects tens of thousands of children and young adults in the United States. There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis and Amanda is one of them.
Your generous gift will be used efficiently and effectively, as 97 cents of every dollar of revenue raised is available for investment in vital CF programs to support research, care and education. Your gift is 100-percent tax deductible and will help add tomorrows to the lives of people with cystic fibrosis by supporting life-saving research and medical progress.
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those with CF! Please consider making a donation in any amount. Your support will help us to "add tomorrow" for Amanda and others with CF.
Thank you for your support and for many of you, for your continued support each year. We are truly thankful for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Cindy, Sean, Amanda and Zack
