Jillian Hornik
I am being honored by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation at a special event recognizing outstanding professionals in my community. In accepting this distinction, I have committed to raise money to help the Foundation realize its mission of curing cystic fibrosis (CF) and providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives.
Please help me meet my fundraising goal by making a donation. By supporting my fundraising efforts, you have an opportunity in your lifetime to be part of ending this disease. Please consider joining us and help make medical history.
Nearly 40,000 people in the United States have cystic fibrosis: a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. Sixty years ago, children with CF usually did not live long enough to attend elementary school. Today, because of Foundation-supported research and care, the median survival age of people with CF is over 50. Working alongside the CF community, the CF Foundation has fostered the development of more than a dozen CF treatments and helped add decades of life for people with CF. Yet, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies. Our vision is a cure for every person with cystic fibrosis – a life free from the burden of this disease – and we will not leave anyone behind.
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!
About JIllian:
Jillian Hornik lives a life of passion for community involvement and an active lifestyle. After living in California for 5 years, she returned to Miami in 2013. At a Florida alumni barbeque, she met a woman with CF, who quickly became one of her closest friends. Through this friend, Elle Kellner, she learned all about living a life with CF. Jill also found out that an old friend from high school had a daughter with CF. Whenever possible, she attends or donates to fundraisers to support their family's foundation. Jillian is honored to be recognized as an outstanding young professional in the South Florida community.
