Come volunteer for a good cause while enjoying scenic nature in the process! The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is holding its annual Great Strides walk in Long Beach at El Dorado East Regional Park in Long Beach on Saturday, May 31st, 2025 from 7:00AM to 2:00PM.
MISSION
Great Strides is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's largest national fundraising event. Over the past 35 years, this walk has supported the organization's mission to cure cystic fibrosis and raise awareness for this rare, genetic, life-shortening disease that makes it difficult to breathe and shortens lives.
IMPACT
The event harnesses the power of people with a shared vision and encourages collaboration, team building, and leadership, as we collectively take steps to find a cure. Volunteers are the backbone of our events and we are always excited to cultivate new relationships within the community. Great Strides provides a fantastic opportunity for family, friends, students, and colleagues to come together and make a difference in the lives of people with CF while engaging with an inspiring group of individuals. We need volunteers on the day of the event to help things run smoothly.
