My Breathe Team Story
Emily Kolbasiuk
Fundraising for 2026 Walt Disney World Marathon
Emily Kolbasiuk
I am supporting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation by running the Walt Disney World Marathon in 2026! This will be my fourth marathon, and I am so happy to be running it for a cause that I am truly passionate about. I have been a nurse for almost 3 years on a pulmonary focused med-surg unit, and I have had the opportunity to learn so much about CF and to take care of adults who live with this disease.
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic, life-shortening disease that devastates the lungs, pancreas, and other vital organs. CF makes it difficult to breathe and fight life-threatening infections, often leading to extensive lung damage and respiratory failure.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has fueled dramatic improvements in cystic fibrosis research and care. Because of the Foundation, people with CF are living longer and healthier lives. The outlook for people with CF continues to improve year after year.
By donating to my fundraising goal, you have the power to advance the research and science needed to drive our shared dream forward – a cure for everyone with CF.
Best,
Emily
