I am honored to be Co-Chairing the 2024 Finest Gala benefiting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. This foundation has been close to my heart for many years since attending the Taste of the Finest and Breath of Life Gala event in 2016. Over time, I've held various volunteering roles within the foundation, and as a current sitting board member, and long-time event committee member, this year's event holds special significance for me because my brother, Bud Thomas, has been named a Finest Honoree. 

It is with great enthusiasm and a deep sense of purpose that I reach out to you today to share our fundraising goal of $260,000 and to invite you to join us in making a profound impact in the fight against cystic fibrosis.

The Event:

The Finest Gala
Date: October 5, 2024
Location: Argenta Plaza

This prestigious event will bring together leaders from our community for an evening of celebration, recognition, and fundraising. All proceeds will support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s mission to advance research and improve the quality of life for individuals living with cystic fibrosis. 

The CF Foundation is widely recognized as one of the “best stories in medicine today.” Through innovative research and relentless advocacy, they have made tremendous strides in the fight against cystic fibrosis. Their efforts have not only extended life expectancy but have also significantly improved the quality of life for those affected by this challenging disease.

Your generosity directly impacts lives by funding critical research, providing resources for families, and supporting the medical advancements that are bringing hope to those living with cystic fibrosis.

How You Can Help:

We invite you to join us in making this year’s Finest Gala a memorable and impactful event. Your support through donations and sponsorships will play a crucial role in helping me reach my goal of $20,000. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to a world without cystic fibrosis. 

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need further information. We are eager to partner with you for this important cause and hope you will consider supporting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s efforts to create a world without cystic fibrosis.

Thank you for your time, generosity, and consideration. Together, we can make a difference.


Warmest regards,
