My Great Strides Story

Four years ago, a colleague nominated me to take part in the Rochester's Finest program. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation invested in me as a young professional through seminars with local leadership and professional development opportunities. I have been able to learn more about cystic fibrosis and those that it impacts in my local community and beyond. Since being an honoree of the Rochester's Finest program, I have continued to stay involved in the Rochester's Finest committee to continue the growth of the program, leading the local Tomorrow's Leaders of WNY and becoming a board member to continue my support of the WNY chapter. To cap this off, I never knew anyone suffering from cystic fibrosis up until my involvement with the the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation until I participated with the Rochester's Finest program. Seeing those that it impacts and hearing their stories continues to motivate me to support the foundation to find a cure.
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.
