Each year, I’m deeply grateful for the friends and loved ones who donate to help my family in the fight against cystic fibrosis. Fundraising is one of the few tangible ways I can support my hilarious, fiercely competitive, guitar-shredding 12-year-old nephew, Ethan Zachary (“EZ”) Spiker-and my cousin’s amazing daughter, Naomi-both of whom are living with CF.

This October, I’ll be joining Ethan and his family on the trails of Zion.

There’s no cure yet, and while research has brought real progress, there’s still a long road ahead. Your donation helps push forward the science that could one day mean a longer, healthier life for everyone with CF.

Thank you for giving, for caring, and for being part of this fight with us.
