Welcome to Kemper’s Krew!

We’re so glad you’re here. This May, our team will be taking on the incredible challenge of hiking the Grand Canyon to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation — and we’re doing it in honor of our son, Kemper, and everyone else fighting cystic fibrosis every single day.

Emily and I started Kemper’s Krew as a small way to turn our love for our son into action and hope. What began as just the two of us has quickly grown into an amazing group of friends and family, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone who has joined us on this journey. Your support means more to us than we can ever fully express.

Kemper is doing great, and we are beyond thankful for the treatments and care that help him stay healthy and strong. But CF is still a life-shortening, debilitating disease with no cure. It affects the lungs, digestive system, and so much more, and the daily treatment burden for people with CF is intense and never-ending.

That’s why we hike.

That’s why we fundraise.

That’s why Kemper’s Krew exists.

Every step we take down into the Canyon (and back out!) represents our commitment to pushing for longer, healthier lives for people with CF — and one day, a cure. Your support fuels critical research, life-changing therapies, and hope for families like ours.

Whether you’re donating, sharing our page, or cheering us on from afar, you are part of Kemper’s Krew — and we are so thankful to have you with us on this journey.
