Why We Stride
In 2012, nearly $40 million was raised to help support life-saving research, quality care, and education programs. Real progress toward a cure has been made, but the lives of young people with CF are still cut far too short. We urgently need the public’s continued support to fulfill our mission and help extend the lives of those with the disease. Learn more.

Attendance Information for People with Cystic Fibrosis
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation welcomes you to its annual Great Strides walk-a-thon to raise money for CF research and care. Because of health risks to people with CF, it is the policy of the CF Foundation that individuals with CF who have had a positive sputum culture for Burkholderia cepacia complex (B. cepacia) shall not attend events or meetings sponsored by the CF Foundation.
"Participating in Great Strides makes our family feel like we’re contributing something instead of just waiting for a cure." - Kristi & David Bowers Read more >
