Fundraise: Fundraising is easier than ever before. You can use the participant center, the Fight CF mobile app, or fundraise on Facebook to reach your goal. You can also create a passion fundraising event or see if your employer has a matching gift program.

Share your story: Life with cystic fibrosis is different for every person living with the disease. Share your story to help others understand the realities of life with CF and why your participation in CF Cycle for Life is important.

A thank you to our sponsors

Our events wouldn’t be possible without the support of our national sponsors: AbbVie  and Vertex, and our national peer-to-peer silver sponsors; Genentech, Nestle Health Science, and Viatris, our national Great Strides sponsor. We also recognize American Airlines, our outstanding corporate supporter.

We also want to thank our local sponsors who continue to help advance our mission.

Community Champion Sponsor 

At the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, we commit to equity, racial justice, diversity, and inclusion as core principles guiding our efforts to provide all people with CF the opportunity to live long, fulfilling lives. We strive to host inclusive and accessible events that enable all individuals to engage fully. Please be aware that a 3-week notice is requested as some accommodations may require time for the Foundation to arrange. If you have a disability and require accommodations to fully participate in this activity, please go to www.cff.org/chapters and email or call your local chapter office.

Pet Policy

For events where pets are welcome: be respectful of other event attendees and only bring well-behaved pets; keep pets on leash at all times; follow the pet policies of the local park or venue; and clean-up after your pet. Pets must be current on all required vaccinations. Pet owners assume full responsibility for their pets.
