We share Miss America’s passion for finding a cure for CF. While Abbie’s passion is inspired by the challenges faced by her lifelong best friend suffering from CF, our passion surrounds our four year old identical twin granddaughters, Lucia and Palmer, who were born with an extremely rare form of CF.  Lucia and Palmer have undergone several surgeries already in their short lives.  There are no drugs currently available to help our girls with their rare variant. This is why we support the ongoing work of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and fundraise for research, medication, and a cure for all with CF.  As a National Brand Ambassador for Cystic Fibrosis, we are grateful to have Miss America at our event….a powerful advocate for Cystic Fibrosis awareness.

This fun and exciting event will help raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Western PA to find a cure for all people with cystic fibrosis. 

Thank you!  Until CF stands for Cure Found!!
