MERRY HOLIDAYS!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
All of us at The Rose Foundation wish each of you Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!
As I look back over the years since The Rose Foundation was founded in 2011 and Colleen’s Run for Roses from St. Louis to NYC, I am filled with gratitude for each of you and your commitment of our mission and HOPE for the future of those living with CF.
Since 2011, there have been four FDA approved medications targeting the underlying condition of cystic fibrosis. Trikafta was the latest to become available in the fall of 2019 and has been a life-changer for so many of those with CF! The CFF is stepping up their Path to a Cure by funding over 50 research programs including genetic-based therapies applying innovative science to CF, over 130 CF care centers nationwide and expanded funding for research of health complications associated with CF, such as GI issues, mental health, advance lung disease and difficult-to-treat infections.
It is because of YOU that the lives of 40,000 children and adults living with CF are healthier and happier!
WE WILL NOT STOP! There is much more to do!
In this season of peace and joy, let us be thankful for the blessings of our community and the passionate commitment of those who are raising the much-needed funds to push us forward to a world where CF stands for Cure Found!
Peace and Joy,
Linda & Jeff Caul Family and
The Rose Foundation Board
Running ’til CF stands for Cure Found!
