Fundraising for Oregon CF Cycle for Life 2026

Cystic Fibrosis (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.
There is currently no cure for CF and too many people with CF die young. I’m cycling again this year to help change that reality. I have seen first-hand the effects of treatments developed by the Foundation for the CF community using the funds raised by this event because, while treatments can help many people with CF, they are not necessarily effective for all forms of CF and a final cure is needed to help all in the community.
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.
