May is Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month

During May, Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month, we make a special effort to tell inspiring stories about Canadians with cystic fibrosis. We also highlight how important funding from Cystic Fibrosis Canada works each and every day to make a real difference in the lives of people with cystic fibrosis, and their families.

Public Service Annoucements
Our media partners help spread the word through conventional media by using our ads.

Events
We hold two major national events to raise awareness and funds —the Great Strides™ walk and National Kin-Cystic Fibrosis Canada Day.

Across the country, our chapter volunteers and partners organize community events. See our calendar for details.
