The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is launching its newest fund-raising program, CureFinders. This school-based program provides an excellent opportunity to promote awareness for cystic fibrosis (CF) and to raise valuable funds to help find a cure for this life-threatening genetic disease. The program benefits students by encouraging them to help other children and become involved in their community. This program offers a variety of activities that are not only great fun but educational too. Students who participate in CureFinders will raise valuable funds to support the vital research and care programs for the CF Foundation. Participants learn real-life lessons about volunteering, helping others and leadership. The CureFinders theme demonstrates to children that they can make a difference in the lives of people with CF!

Why participate in CureFinders?

• Students learn valuable lessons in leadership, reaching goals, teamwork, volunteering and helping others.

• CureFinders activities can easily be integrated with K-12 curriculum with lessons in counting, biology, percentages, art, creative writing and more.
