Metro DC Chapter

The Metro D.C. chapter is hosting our Great Strides Virtual Rally on Wednesday, May 6th at 4:30 PM. This rally is open to our entire community. It's a time for us to come together, celebrate our successes and kick off our 2020 Great Strides campaign.  

Just like at the Bethesda walk, our featured speakers will be our President and CEO, Dr. Mike Boyle, Executive Vice President and COO, Marc Ginsky, Great Strides Local Ambassador, Jack O'Steen, AbbVie Inc. TeamMATES, Beth Gordon and Vanessa Buff, and our host for this virtual rally, WUSA9 Television's, Ellen Bryan.

So, grab your snacks, tune in and enjoy music, team shout outs, virtual fun and walk warmups!

After the program, we encourage you to lace up and take a walk with your "quaranteam" (those you're already sheltered in place with), share on social media, and tag us (@CFFMetroDC)!

This online event will feature voices from the CF community in an hour-long celebration of all we have accomplished together, along with opportunities to connect with other attendees as we move forward on the path to cure cystic fibrosis. Now more than ever, our ties to each other and our shared mission will help us persevere.

Get your wheels in motion and join us for our September 20, 2020 annual bicycle event as we ride through some of the most picturesque and scenic terrain in Historic Leesburg, VA. CF Cycle for Life is a fully-supported ride with route options of 20, 40 & 65 miles.

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's Xtreme Hike program takes hikers through some of the most scenic trails in the nation to raise funds and awareness for cystic fibrosis. Xtreme Hike is about reaching new heights physically and philanthropically.

The 65 Roses Golf Classic benefiting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation attracts Washington, D.C. and Northern Virginia's top businesses. Golfers will enjoy a networking breakfast followed by 18 holes of golf, played in a shotgun scramble format.
