My Great Strides Story

Mary Anne Drake Pettit

Fundraising for Buffalo Great Strides 2026

Donate

Mary Anne Drake Pettit

Please help make a difference. Taylor Smith (the daughter of my lifelong friend, Tracy Smith), is living proof that the generosity of people like you saves lives. Every little bit is a step towards finding a cure.
Words from Tracy:
When I think about where our journey has taken us, I am beyond grateful for all of you who have continued to donate over these past 29 years. Taylor has been blessed with Trikafta since 2019 and that’s because of YOU, HOWEVER, there still are about 10% of those living with CF who cannot benefit from any of the modulators to date. There STILL is no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young.
Here’s where we need your support! We need to keep our foot on the pedal of research and reach the ultimate goal of a true cure. Taylor needs this as well as so many others. Won’t you help?
Please donate today and help us provide tomorrows to those who need it most.
