My Great Strides Story

Fundraising for Springfield, MO Great Strides 2026

Jack and Betsy Stack

Our 16 year old granddaughter, Kadyn, was born with cystic fibrosis and has been fighting it with grace and courage  her whole life. 

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF live shortened lives.  We are walking to help change that reality.

CF is a genetic 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 Kadyn and everyone with CF has a better chance to live a long, healthy life.

By donating to our 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.

If you can, won't you please help us? 

Thank you so much,
Jack and Betsy
