My Great Strides Story

Dane and Hollis are my why.

They are two incredible fighters who were born just a little extra special—and every day, they show the world what strength truly looks like.

 

Both were born with cystic fibrosis, a genetic, life-shortening disease that attacks the lungs, pancreas, and other vital organs. CF makes it hard to breathe, hard to fight infection, and far too often steals precious time from the people we love. There is still no cure, and too many lives are cut short.
 

No two people with cystic fibrosis experience this disease the same way. Each journey is unique, filled with challenges, courage, setbacks, and victories. While medical advances have brought hope to many, there are still far too many people - including Dane and Hollis - who face a long and uncertain road ahead.


That’s why I walk. I fundraise. And I fight - for them, and for everyone living with CF.
 

With your help, we can push research forward, accelerate life-saving science, and move closer to the day when cystic fibrosis no longer defines or limits a life.
 

Will you join us in ending cystic fibrosis?
 

Your donation brings us one step closer to a cure - and to a future where every person with CF has the chance to live a long, healthy life.
