Ella K
We invite you to join the Ella K team for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s 2026 Great Strides. You have been an important part of this effort and have helped us make a significant impact on the lives of people with cystic fibrosis (CF), including our daughter, Ella.
Ella continues to thrive on the therapies made possible by amazing supporters like you. She is currently finishing up her work at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science and plans to pursue a graduate degree in Art Conservation.
Every person born with CF is on a unique journey and experiences this challenging disease differently. Some people are thriving, while others do not benefit from existing therapies, either because their disease is too advanced or because their specific genetic mutations will not respond.
Our team is committed to continuing to fund the lifesaving research that the CFF is pioneering including transformative genetic therapies, innovations in personalized care and building the vital community support for every person navigating their unique CF journey.
If you would like to donate this year, click on the “Donate” button. If you prefer, you can send your donation directly to the Virginia Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Attn: Beth Saladino at 7202 Glen Forest Drive, Suite 102, Richmond, Virginia 23226.
If you would like to join us for what promises to be a fun-filled Friday night on May 15 at the Richmond Great Strides event, please let us know and we will get you all the details.
