I am participating in the Great Splash at Strathalbyn Great Strides in support of people living with CF, together i hope to raise $500. You can help me by making a donation to my campaign, or by coming along on the day to donate and try your throwing hand in an attempt to dunk me and my colleagues.
Cystic Fibrosis is the most common recessive genetic condition affecting Australians and 1 in 25 of us carry the CF gene - most people have no idea they are a carrier of CF until their baby is diagnosed. There is no cure for CF but we are working hard to make sure that everyone with CF lives their best life and remains as well as possible.
CFSA is the community based charity that supports people living with CF and for almost 50 years has provided programs which ease the daily burden of life with CF. They also support research into CF, including many clinical programs over the years as well as local and national CF research projects. CFSA has advocated tirelessly for the right resourcing in each of the CF centres here in SA and are big supporters of the CF care teams here. CFSA receives no government funding so any donation you make to my fundraising efforts will be greatly appreciated.
