Shots on Goal: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life shortening, genetic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and young adults in the U.S.  A defective gene causes the body to produce an abnormally thick, sticky substance in the lungs and digestive system that hinders the body’s ability to breathe and absorb nutrients.  Currently, there is no cure.  The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is aggressively pursuing a cure for CF by efficiently investing in cutting edge, life saving science.  Thank you for helping us make “shots on goal” to find a cure for CF on Sunday, March 3rd.  Meet you on the ice!

Thank you for helping make “CF” stand for “Cure Found”.
