Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a
devastating genetic disease that
affects children and
young adults. The defective gene
substantially impairs normal
respiratory and
digestive functions making the
simple acts of eating and
breathing a challenge. One in
thirty Americans is a carrier of
the CF defective gene. Advances
continue to be made in finding a
cure, but your help is needed
now, more than ever, to keep up
the momentum of this life-saving
research
GREAT STRIDES is the Cystic
Fibrosis Foundation's (CF
Foundation) largest
and most successful national
fund-raising event. This year,
I'm walking in the
GREAT STRIDES event in Laconia
at Opechee Park on May 16, 2010.
Please help
me meet my personal fund-raising
goal of $150.00 by sponsoring
me. Team goal $1500.00.
You
will feel confident in knowing
that your generous gift is used
efficiently and
effectively; the CF Foundation
is a Better Business
Bureau-accredited charity and
a recipient of Charity
Navigator’s four-star rating.
And, your donation is tax
deductible.
Donating to GREAT STRIDES 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!
You may send a check, made
payable to the Cystic
Fibrosis Foundation or you can
also donate online at http://greatstrides.cff.org.
Just type my name under “Find a
Walker”—it’s simple!

supporting the mission of the CF
Foundation!
Sincerely,
Katrina Keene
