My CF Cycle for Life Story

Fundraising for Rhode Island CF Cycle for Life 2026
Jane Mignone
This is the 15th year that I will be participating in the Rhode Island CF Cycle event. I will ride in memory of my son Scott who had cystic fibrosis and passed away at the age of 6 months. I also ride for the approximately 40,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. After many memorable years we retired Team Scott last year. This year I will participate as a virtual rider for the Washington Trust team.
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and many people with CF die at a young age. I’m cycling 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 ride you are advancing the research and science needed to drive our shared dream forward – a cure for everyone with CF.
Thank you!
