The Maryland Chapter of the @CF_Foundation raises funds through special events and other campaigns to advance the search for a cure for cystic fibrosis.
In our new normal, we’re incredibly grateful for the support of our Great Strides sponsors, AbbVie, Genentech, Gilead, and Vertex, who remain committed to our mission. Our most important and challenging work is still ahead. Together, we’re moving one step closer to a cure for CF.
Looking for an easy way to stay active and get exercise from home? Now through Labor Day, the Foundation is offering access to on-demand and live classes through @BeamFeelGood for adults with #cysticfibrosis 18 and older at no charge.
