My Great Strides Story

Last October, Jim and I were so blessed to become grandparents for the first time.  Our special little granddaughter Georgia was perfect in every way.  We love her with all our heart.

Georgia is special in another way too.  She was born with Cystic Fibrosis.

We are now apart of a bigger family of supporters of Cystic Fibrosis called Grampions- grandparents who help and support others with CF live their best lives.

Please join us as we fundraise not only for our grandchild but for all grandchildren with CF.

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.

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.
