Goal
Our own Cystic Dreams Team will participate n the Westfields Sprint Triathlon in Virginia on May 6th in support of Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month and The Cystic Dreams Fund!
Please make a donation in support of our team as they swim, bike and run their way to a goal of funding two assistance grants for cystic fibrosis survivors struggling with the enormous costs of living with cystic fibrosis.
Here's what you may not know about Cystic Fibrosis:
- Cystic fibrosis is a life threatening genetic disease that damages the lungs and digestive system.
- Approximately 30,000 children and adults in the United States have cystic fibrosis.
- Due to low life expectancy, cystic fibrosis was once considered a exclusively a childhood disease. Advancements in research and care have enable people with cystic fibrosis to live into their 30s, 40s and beyond.
- The average annual cost for treating cystic fibrosis is more than $15,000 per year.
- The Cystic Dreams Fund offers financial assistance to adults, children and their families impacted by the huge costs of living with cystic fibrosis.
Your Donation Will Go to Good Use!
We operate as an all-volunteer organization, which means when you make a donation to The Cystic Dreams Fund, 100% of your donation goes directly to assisting someone struggling with the costs associated cystic fibrosis. Only with your support, can we continue with our important mission.
