This year we're turning Great Strides into Great Rides with a Car Parade to celebrate your efforts towards finding a cure for CF. We hope you'll join us at the Car Parade and during our 65 Roses Challenge. For 30 years, Great Strides - the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's largest national fundraising event - has supported the Foundation's mission to cure cystic fibrosis and raise awareness for this rare, genetic, life-shortening disease that makes it difficult to breathe and shortens lives. Great Strides provides a fantastic opportunity for family, friends, students, and colleagues to come together and make a difference in the lives of people with CF.
