Help Ed raise money

You either know me well or you don’t. If you do, I hope it will come as no surprise that I have joined the Cystic Fibrosis Team for the Falmouth Road Race on August 21st with the goal of raising several thousand dollars for research.

Why Cystic Fibrosis you ask? I have three reasons.

1.     Noble Cause: When something happens to a child they must deal with the rest of their life, it is not a good thing and not fair. Research can not only lead to a cure, but to a prevention or mitigation. Supporting this organization is similar to the 30+ years of effort supporting another non-profit organization engaged in noble work.

2.      Results: The research dollars generated by volunteers for the organization….have worked! That’s right. Huge advances in treatment have been achieved as a result of the type of grass roots efforts this event represents. Life expectancy of CF patients continues to grow.

3.      Inspiration: Over the years some people have credited me with inspiring them, and I have been inspired by many people. But there is a Dad who volunteers for Cystic Fibrosis whose passion, dedication and focus on the mission of finding a cure is unparalleled and unparalleled excellence always inspires.
