Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

You Don’t Have to be a Scientist to Help Cure Cystic Fibrosis!

With a simple gift of time, talent and/or money, you can join a team that is closer than ever to controlling this disease and finding a cure. There are many ways to help. However you choose to get involved, you will bring us closer to a cure while adding more tomorrows for those struggling with cystic fibrosis.

Backing a Winner

When you support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, you support an organization built on the same principles as today’s successful corporations:

Efficiency – The Foundation is one of the most effective and efficient organizations of its kind and is an accredited charity of the Better Business Bureau’s Wise Giving Alliance.
Innovation – By offering milestone-driven research awards, the Foundation stimulates the development of effective new therapies.
Results-Driven Approach – When the CF Foundation began, most patients did not live to attend their first day of elementary school. Now, thanks to the research and care supported by the Foundation, the median predicted age of survival for a person with cystic fibrosis is now in the mid-30s.

Already Part of the Team?

Help us expand it. The number one reason that people volunteer is because someone asks them to do it. Talk to people you see on a regular basis about getting involved—like neighbors, co-workers and local business owners. Maximize your impact by helping us get others involved!

The possibility of a cure is only limited by dollars. We won’t stop working until “CF” stands for “Cure Found.”
