What a difference 22 years makes!
Fundraising for Atlanta Great Strides

What a difference 22 years makes! When Hayden was diagnosed with CF, the life the doctor described was one filled with medicines, breathing treatments, and annual hospitalization for a “tune-up”. We were told his life expectancy was in his mid-30’s. To say the least, it was hard to imagine a future where Hayden would be healthy enough to go off to college.
Yet here we are today! On May 2, Hayden graduates from GA Tech (with a 4.0!). Next fall, he starts grad school. These amazing accomplishments have been possible thanks to the CF Foundation and its donors. CF Foundation funding has allowed the discovery of ground-breaking new treatments. Thanks to these advancements, Hayden is thriving. To everyone who has helped get him to where he is today, thank you.
As people with CF enter adulthood, they face new challenges. And here’s the bottom line-while treatments have improved, there is still no cure for CF.
What if Hayden could live a long, healthy life which allows him to achieve his dreams? What if he could wake up every day without the worry of staying healthy? What if Hayden could say he no longer has CF? YOU can help him and everyone with CF by making a donation. Your generosity and compassion WILL make a difference in the search for a cure. Will you help us celebrate Hayden’s accomplishments and his bright future by making a donation to Hayden’s Team today?
