Thank you for taking time out of your day to come to this page. To keep it simple - we’re asking for hope. Hope for a better tomorrow. Hope for a cure.
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that currently has no cure, despite the tremendous progress made over the years. Research, new treatments, ways of care, and so much more drastically impact the life expectancy of those with CF. Because of people like you, fundraising efforts have made so much possible. But…there’s more to be done.
I joined this fight many years ago when my cousin Jordan was diagnosed in 2002 at just 6 weeks old. At a couple years old, I always told my parents I wanted a little sister and what I got was just that - my younger, adorable cousin Jordan who was my sister in every way that mattered. We wore matching outfits, made our family watch our dance routines, and begged for sleepovers. We even went to UF together for a year, where Jordan is now getting her Master's!
We’ve fundraised in many ways over the years. It all started with the Hook a Cure Fishing Tournament in Tampa where we proudly claimed to be "Jordan's Cousin", countless lemonade stands, and now today with this Florida’s Finest campaign. My dream through this all has always been clear - a lifetime with my best friend. Thanks to fundraising efforts, Jordan is a thriving 23 year old attending college, traveling with friends, and enjoying life in ways we didn't always know would be possible.
YOU can make a lasting impact by choosing to join this fight with us. Every donation and word of encouragement goes towards a future that looks a little better than today. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for being a part of our family’s journey and providing hope for so many.
Sincerely,
Kelsea
For even more information on all the wonderful impacts of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, read below:
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.
