I Run to Cure CF!
I have witnessed many patients battling lung infections associated with having Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Current therapies for infections are not only ineffective, but also burdensome. My role at CFF is to direct the research associated with developing new therapies, which are safe and effective for patients with CF who develop these infections.
I am running my first full Pittsburgh Marathon (26.2 miles) on May 4th, 2025! Would you consider supporting me by donating to CFF? Your money will be used to forward our goal to not only help patients with CF, but CURE them!
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 Megan Rula - mrula@cff.org
