My Great Strides Story
Heather Martin
Fundraising for Hagerstown Great Strides
Heather Martin
On Saturday, May 3rd, I am participating in the Cystic Fibrosis Great Strides walk to raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis. I've been participating in this event since my nephew, Austin, was first diagnosed almost 25 years ago.
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.
Every person born with cystic fibrosis is on a unique journey and experiences this challenging disease differently. While progress has been made, a long road lies ahead for far too many people fighting this terrible disease. We need a cure so that everyone with CF has a better chance to live a long, healthy life.
Will you help us end cystic fibrosis?
Thank you for supporting me and my fundraising efforts. 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.
