Our walk is over but the research is not and we hope to give many who live with this disease a better life.  For those who will discover they have CF,  more opportunities to live what many of us call "normal lives". 

We never want to forget Amanda.  That is why we do this.  She is just one of many who lived a life with CF.  There are many being diagnosed every day and now have to adapt to a new life.  But progress happens due to those willing to help us. 

We are grateful and say Thank you to all who have donated allowing Amanda's Ambassadors to reach our goal for another year.   You have helped that to be possible.  Share what you have learned with others and ask them to join in the cause.  It is never too late, they always need funds.

Please continue to pray for those living with CF and for it to very soon stand for Cure Found.  With God all things are possible.

THANK YOU ALL!!!!



There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I’m walking to help change that reality.

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?

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.
