2026 Local Ambassador

Meet our 2026 Local Ambassador!

Paige McCormack

Paige McCormack

Paige was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) at just two weeks. She is now four years old and lights up every room with her constant smile and joyful spirit. She is incredibly kind, always thinking of others, and loves looking up to her big sister. Paige enjoys dancing, singing, soccer, T-ball, ice skating, and swimming. From Paige's mom, Jill: "For the past three years—now entering our fourth—we have proudly walked together as a family in the West Haven Great Strides, surrounded by an incredible community of relatives, friends, and supporters. Through advocacy and fundraising, we have raised thousands of dollars to help find a cure and support the development of the next breakthrough treatment or modulator for Paige and others living with CF.
