Luca is a brave little guy but the reality is....his life span is unknown. There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I'm walking to help change that reality. Luca is doing really well with the help of his life changing medication and treatments to assist his daily life. He is so brave! I wish you could see how he's handled his treatments over his young life. And he's the smartest funniest coolest kid!


CF is a 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?

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.
