We invite you to take part in Great Strides by joining our team. We promise, you belong here! This event promises to be a fun-filled day where you can help advance the care and research needed to cure cystic fibrosis. By walking with us, you’ll enjoy not only the natural camaraderie (yes, lots of laughter!), but the important impact we are making together.

While the CF Foundation has made incredible progress, not everyone with CF can benefit from existing therapies and we still need a cure. This will require time, funding, and persistence – but with you on our team – we are ready to go the distance.

We're walking in memory of my cousin Josh, who bravely battled cystic fibrosis with a strength and spirit that inspired everyone around him. Josh was the kind of person who could light up a room no matter how bad he was feeling—always cracking jokes and making people laugh. He was incredibly kind, endlessly resilient, and full of life. Josh followed his passion for cooking and went to culinary school, eventually working at Bonefish Grill, where he poured his heart into every dish. Though we lost him in 2012, his memory continues to motivate us. We're walking to honor his life and help others fighting the same battle.



During my undergraduate studies, I met Peter in a statistics course, and he quickly became one of my best friends. His personality, strength, resilience, perseverance, and zeal for life were truly unforgettable. Even while facing his own battle with cystic fibrosis, Peter was always there to support and encourage me through my own struggles. His selflessness and unwavering positivity left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. Sadly, he passed away in 2020, but I will never forget his contagious smile and infectious laugh. I'm walking in his memory as well, to honor his life and spirit.



Our team is committed to providing every person with CF the opportunity to live a long, healthy life. Will you join us?
