I Run to Cure CF!
I'm lacing up my running shoes for the Pittsburgh Marathon, driven by my friend Laura's niece, Natalie, who battles cystic fibrosis. Laura has been apart of this organization and has conquered 9 marathons for the cause. I am excited to join forces with the CF team to spread awareness, support, and raise funds for this crucial cause. As a former sprinter, tackling my first full marathon is certainly going to be a challenge. Your contribution will not only fuel my run but also make a meaningful impact on those fighting against cystic fibrosis and finding a cure. Let's make each step count together!
Description
Cystic fibrosis is a rare, genetic disease found in about 40,000 people in the U.S. causing persistent lung infections and limiting the ability to breath over time. Those living with this disease are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends, and co-workers --all struggling each day just to breathe and live normal, healthy lives.
While there has been significant progress in treating this disease, there is still no cure and too many lives are cut far too short. By participating in the Pittsburgh Marathon on behalf of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, I run to help add tomorrows to the lives of all people living with cystic fibrosis today. Please make a difference and support me by donating to my fundraising campaign today!
Then please consider joining the team! For more information - reach out to Fallon DeRiggi - fderiggi@cff.org
