Greater Illinois Chapter - Chicago

FestivAle is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's annual craft beer tasting celebration! This year, FestivAle: Virtual Edition will consist of a series of intimate virtual events hosted by our extraordinary committee members and longtime FestivAle supporters.

Team CF Superheroes are helping make CF stand for Cure Found across multiple races in Chicagoland. Make your miles count and join Team CF for the 2020 Chicago Marathon, Chicago Triathlon, Shamrock Shuffle or any race of your choosing!

Register and participate virtually at our virtual Chicago CF Climb on October 17th, and help us stay the course and advance our mission in an uncertain time. Going virtual this year means that we are fortunate to host our CF Climb all over the world. The very first step you can take is choosing which famous structure you plan to virtually climb on October 17th. Whether it be climbing the stairs in your home, a local stadium or park, or even accomplishing these steps through a walk or run, every step counts.

The Greater Illinois Chapter is pleased to invite family members and care givers of individuals living with CF to join us virtually to connect, encourage, and share experiences. All CF care givers are welcome to join our calls to connect, share your experiences, and help build a stronger CF community.

Join Carmen DeFalco as he hosts a live, virtual, conversation featuring crowd favorite bourbons, distillery centered conversations, and a 'how to' guide for tasting your own whiskey-you won't want to miss this free, unfiltered, event!

While we are unable to host this incredible event in person, we are thrilled to announce that the Chicago's Magnificent 65 Roses Trivia Challenge will be held virtually, once a week, starting on October 1st. Supporters are encouraged to sign up a team, who will compete in weekly trivia that will test their knowledge of the decades, all while supporting the mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
