Our Story
There
are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms,
dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle
every day just to breathe. We walk for them.
In 2006, Mallory was diagnosed with CF. Since then, we've walked for her - in Delaware, South Carolina, New York, Ohio, Michigan, and California. And we won't stop until we find a cure.
Will you join us? There are two
ways you can become a member of our National Family team.
1.
You can join any of our teams across the country as a walker and help fundraise
by clicking the Join Our Team Button above.
2.
You can lead your own team under our National Family team in a walk local to
you and help recruit others to walk with you by clicking Find a Walk and
following the prompts to register for a walk near you.
By
becoming a member of our team and making a donation, you are joining a growing
group of people committed to finding a cure for cystic fibrosis. Together, we
are adding tomorrows to the lives of people living with CF by supporting the
search for a cure.
Great Strides is a
fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF
and their families.
