Thanks for checking out our page! We are very excited for the third annual Commutin' With CoJo happening September 21st 2025.

Why we choose to have an event: As many of you know our headband wearing, sports dominating, and #1 hype person for all around her, Connor "CoJo" Lewis has Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Connor's brother, Richard, also has CF and this disease has been a part of their lives since Day 1. In short, CF is a genetic condition that affects a protein in the body, this faulty protein affects the body's cells, tissues, and the glands that make mucus and sweat.
 

The event this year will be in conjunction with the CF Foundations ROSE UP event. 
 
ROSE UP, now in its sixth year, is a virtual fundraising event created and led by adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). This inspiring event brings the CF community together to advance the mission of finding a cure and improving the quality of life for everyone living with CF. 

Participants are encouraged to choose an activity that is meaningful to them to complete on ROSE UP Day. Whether it’s running, walking, painting, baking, head shaving, dancing, or anything else that resonates, there are endless ways to ROSE UP! 

This year, our goal is to raise $500,000! You can help us reach it by donating today and spreading the word to your friends and family. 

Recognized globally, the CF Foundation has been a trailblazer in the fight against cystic fibrosis, driving extraordinary medical and scientific progress. Together with the CF community, the Foundation has supported the development of more than a dozen CF treatments—an unprecedented achievement in a short span of time—and helped add decades of life for people with CF. 

However, despite these advances, many individuals with CF still do not benefit from existing therapies. 

I am proud to be part of ROSE UP this year, joining others in the CF community who dream of the day when CF stands for Cure Found. Please join me in supporting ROSE UP! 

Whether you donate, raise awareness by sharing your story and tagging #ROSEUPCF on social media, or do both, you are making a powerful difference for people living with CF. 

Thank you for your support. 

Let’s ROSE UP together!
