Great Strides is a fun-filled day! Teams raise money to further the mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation; to find a cure for cystic fibrosis (CF). Great Strides is an opportunity for friends, family members, neighbors, and co-workers to come together and enjoy a non-competitive 5K walk throughout the community. Volunteers are needed to help with set-up, clean-up, greeting teams and walkers, handing out t-shirts and prizes, serving food and beverages, marking the route, and other odd jobs. We also encourage volunteers to form a team and walk in support of our mission. Go online to greatstrides.cff.org and register your team today! Volunteers are the root of our organization so please join us at Great Strides and help make CF stand for "Cure Found!" #CHC

Description
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-threatening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive systems of approximately 30,000 children and adults in the United States. It is estimated that more than 10 million Americans are unknowing, symptomless carriers of the defective CF gene, which means they are at a greater risk for having a child with the disease.
There are many ways you can get involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Register a team for a Great Strides walk, raise money for your team and participate in the event. If you don't have a team, sign up as an individual walker. Volunteer at our events throughout the year- Soup Cook Off, Great Strides, Brewers Fest, Golf Outing and Gala.
