My Great Strides Story

"Hi! I'm Anna and I have CF. Great Strides helps me survive! So, I hope you can give money to the foundation. Also, it's not just me who has CF. Other people do too! So I guess, if there is more medicine for all of us CFers, not as many will die from trying to breath and things like that.

People who just think for themselves, don't always think about this. It is a bad thought to think about so try to think good thoughts. Let's all help each other out and be nice." 

- Anna, 6 year old who doesn't have a cure or ability to take more advanced modulator CF treatments right now due to her kind of CF. 

____________________________________________
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.
