Cystic Fibrosis Foundation - Western Pennsylvania Chapter We're helping to advance the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s mission to cure cystic fibrosis.

About CF:
Cystic fibrosis is a life-threatening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of approximately 30,000 children and adults in the United States. More than 10 million Americans are unknowing, symptomless carriers of a defective CF gene.

This 65 Roses Day (6/5), join the 65 Roses Club: a dedicated group of monthly donors committed to helping cure cystic fibrosis.

As a monthly donor, you can spread your support into smaller gifts that add up to real progress. This steady, reliable stream of revenue helps enable the Foundation to fund innovative research, drug development, and provide high-quality, specialized care so that we can get closer to a cure for cystic fibrosis.

Joining is easy — set up automatic monthly giving through the donation page and know your support is working for people with CF every month, without any extra steps.

65 Roses Day (6/5) is around the corner! Are you familiar with the “65 Roses” story?

The “65 Roses” story began in 1965 when a 4-year-old, hearing the name of his disease for the first time, pronounced cystic fibrosis as “65 Roses.” Today, it’s a term many children with CF still use to describe their disease. But making the disease easier to say doesn’t make it easier to live with.

Thank you to our amazing Great Strides sponsors for their support!

The impact of cystic fibrosis isn’t always visible. There are nearly 40,000 people living with cystic fibrosis in the United States, and everyone’s experience with the disease is unique. In honor of Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month, help us spread information about this complex disease.

Have you taken, or are you currently taking, a cystic fibrosis modulator like Kalydeco, Orkambi, Symdeko, Trikafta, or Alyftrek? Join the next CF Circle, a virtual small-group discussion, on May 19 at 7 p.m. ET to talk openly about physical and mental health changes that may have come with modulators.

CF Circles are a space to share, support each other, and hear from people who understand what you’re going through. This session is open to adults with cystic fibrosis.
