My Great Strides Story

Andrew James

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.  

The landscape of the CF Community is shifting. Now it's reported that 60% of patients with CF are adults. This creates new challenges and areas of study for the Foundation. I'm thankful to be in this statistic, but I can testify that this disease does not get easier as you age. More and more obstacles linger from birth and our development. 

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.
