My Great Strides Story
Diane Bartley
Fundraising for Point Pleasant Beach Great Strides
Diane Bartley
I walk in memory of Melissa and Amanda and in honor of the Cokelet family and friends community, and many others who have been touched by CF in one way or another. The struggle is so real, but the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is an extraordinary organization of research and cure. Please provide your support towards overcoming this disease.
Noteworthy, is that our Keyport group have been participating in this yearly Great Strides Point Pleasant CF Walk for 38+ years. We’ve walked with babies in strollers, Youth Group kids, even jogging adults. Now we walk in memory of two beautiful ladies who died from the disease, but also in honor of Melissa’s two beautiful and amazing daughters, continuing to keep their legacy alive and a cure in the horizon.
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.
