For the third year, the Greater New York Chapter will host the CF Climb at Citi Field for a challenging and unique fitness event! Participants will climb the flights of stairs inside the upper deck of Citi Field in a test of endurance while "Adding Tomorrows" for people with cystic fibrosis. Whether climbing to improve personal timing or to simply cross the finish line, this event is a great way to spend the day with co-workers, friends or family while making a difference. After crossing the finish line, we invite climbers to celebrate at the survival party with a DJ and live entertainment.
Listed below are descriptions of various volunteer roles. Your help will ensure that CF Climb 2016 is a huge success!

Mission Statement
The mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is to cure cystic fibrosis and to provide all people with the disease the opportunity to lead full, productive lives by funding research and drug development, promoting individualized treatments, and ensuring access to high quality, specialized care. In all that we do, we are committed to fulfilling this mission.
Description
Since our founding in 1955, we have worked alongside the cystic fibrosis community to effectively transform a genetic disease in a single generation - making CF one of the most amazing stories in medicine today. Read about the milestones we've achieved in pursuit of a cure for cystic fibrosis. Through our venture philanthropy model, we provide early stage funding to companies to develop breakthrough drugs for adults and children with cystic fibrosis. Our federal and state advocacy efforts support our mission of ensuring that everyone with cystic fibrosis has access to high-quality, specialized care. We evaluate policies and legislation through one lens: How would this impact people with CF and their families? At the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, we commit to equity, racial justice, diversity, and inclusion as core principles guiding our efforts to provide all people with CF the opportunity to live long, fulfilling lives.
