I Run to Cure CF!

This year I will be running the half marathon (5 months pregnant), to find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis. My 12 year old niece, Natalie, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis when she was born. Since then, my family and I have been raising awareness and money in order to find her and so many others the cure they need.

Your generous donations over the years has made SUCH a huge difference in the medical advancements, and the quality of life for people living with CF.  I know there is a cure coming in the near future. Until then, we are going to keep working hard to help find it! Thank you so much in advance!

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
