Being selected as a STANDOUT honoree by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in 2023 was a gratifying experience. Through that recognition, I became deeply connected to the Foundation and its life-saving work on behalf of those living with cystic fibrosis. This year, I’ve joined the STANDOUT leadership team as a committee member, where we’re focused on continuing the program’s momentum, supporting the Foundation’s mission, and helping to nominate and mentor the STANDOUT Class of 2025.

In support of my position on the committee, I am raising funds for cystic fibrosis (CF) research and care.  I want to introduce you to one of the children I have an opportunity to help… this is Chloe. Though she is doing well now, I want to make sure Chloe and all the other children living with this disease continue to grow and thrive. By supporting me, you can help us make a difference in Chloe's life. 

Know that your generous gift will be used efficiently and effectively— CFF is a careful steward of every dollar and is an accredited charity of the Better Business Bureau’s Wise Giving Alliance.

There are three ways to support me: 

1)    Make a donation that will be credited to my fundraising efforts. Any amount you can donate will be greatly appreciated! 

2)    Purchase a ticket to join us for the STANDOUT event (I would be ecstatic to have you at my table as I support the honorees!) The event is Thursday, November 7 at The Ruth. Tickets can be purchased here on my webpage and include a seated dinner, hosted beer & wine bar, and live music.

3)    If you know others who would be willing and interested in joining our efforts, please send them my link and invite your friends to support our effort!

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a devastating genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system. More than ten million Americans are symptomless carriers of the defective CF gene. Advances continue to be made in finding a cure, but your help is needed now—more than ever—to help keep up the momentum of this life-saving research. To learn more about CF and the CF Foundation, visit www.cff.org. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those with cystic fibrosis. Thank you for supporting the mission of the CF Foundation!
