Cystic Fibrosis Great Strides Walk coming soon

On May 17, Veterans Park will be filled with children’s crafts, music, food and a 5K as a part of the annual Great Strides Walk, sponsored by the Alabama chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to funding research for cystic fibrosis and supporting the development of new drugs to fight the disease.

“Our mission is to find a cure for cystic fibrosis and to improve the quality of life for people living with the disease,” said Kristi Metz, logistics specialist for the Alabama chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
