Great Strides is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's largest and most successful national fund-raising event. This year, I'm walking in the Great Strides WALK in Phoenix on April 28th. Please help me meet my fund-raising goal of $2500.00 by sponsoring me. Your generous gift will be used efficiently and effectively, as nearly 90 cents of every dollar of revenue raised is available for investment in vital CF programs to support research, care and education.

My 12 year old nephew, Jay has CF. A Seattle resident, this last year he has been in the hospital 2 different times for about 2 weeks each time. Everyday Jay gets to get breathing treatments to help him Jay is very active and loves baseball.

When we first found out Jay had CF the average age of life was 18 years old and now 9 years later it now 35 years of age. Please help us find a cure.

You can help Jay and other with CF in multiple ways; either by making a donation on this page or seeing me in person. Also if you are interested in walking please join us. Just click the "Click to Donate" button on this page to go to make a donation that will be credited to my team. Any amount you can donate is greatly appreciated!

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a devastating genetic disease that affects tens of thousands of children and young adults in the United States. Research and care supported by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is making a huge difference in extending the quality of life for those with CF. However, we continue to lose precious lives to CF every day. That's why your help is needed now more than ever to ensure that a cure is found sooner - rather than later.
