I Run to Cure CF!

I am excited to run the Pittsburgh Half Marathon on May 5, 2024, to raise money in support of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for a good friend, and we need your help. Sofia is a teenage friend of my daughters. She is always cheery and full of energy. You would never know by just looking at her that she has been fighting this serious disease since birth. Please help me meet my fundraising goal by donating on my webpage.


Donating is such a simple and effective way for you to show your support for this important cause.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those with CF.

Thanks so much for your support!

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
