My CF Climb Story

Fundraising for Portland Firefighter Stairclimb Challenge
Savanna Myra
I am climbing in honor of my sweet friend and fellow first responder Alyssa Rogers. She is an EMT, a college graduate, a mental health specialist for Seattle Children's, and most important a mom to twins. In her lifetime life expectancy for people with CF has increased significantly, but by raising money for CF research I truly hope that a cure for CF can be found. I have been so inspired by the things Alyssa has accomplished despite having Cystic Fibrosis, and I hope I can inspire others to raise money and work towards a cure.
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?
