Hi! I need your help. I'm taking part in the127th Boston Marathon to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF), a nonprofit that is close to my heart.

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a progressive genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs.Thanks to CFF-funded research, there have been tremendous advancements in specialized CF care. Although there has been significant progress in treating this disease, many patients are waiting for specialized drugs and treatments and their lives are cut short.

I am running in honor of my brother who has worked tirelessly to maintain his health, and who has benefited greatly from the groundbreaking advancements in Cystic Fibrosis medicine and care. I am also running for CF patients who are still waiting for additional research and miracle scientific breakthroughs.

If you know someone with Cystic Fibrosis or someone who has been affected by CF, please tell them I am running for them. And, let me know, because I would be honored to add their name to my jersey on race day.

Thank you for considering a donation to my fundraising efforts. Together we can make CF stand for Cure Found.
