Join our team and help us get one step closer to a cure for cystic fibrosis – a rare, genetic, life-shortening disease that makes it difficult to breathe.
With supporters like you by our side, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation continues to lead the way in the fight against CF, fueling extraordinary medical and scientific progress. The life expectancy of someone born with CF has doubled in the last 30 years. Despite this progress, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies either because their disease is too advanced or because their specific genetic mutations will not respond. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends, and co-workers who struggle every day in the face of this devasting disease.
We walk in Great Strides for them. We walk for Nicole, my 24-year old niece. She graduated from JMU with a Master of Arts in Special Education in May 2023 and is a SPED teacher at Luray High School. Without your support and improvements in treatment, none of this would be possible. CFF still continues to search for the cure, not just treatments.
Will you support us?
