Maybe you've noticed that the official colors of the CF Foundation are blue and yellow, but when the Foundation is REALLY serious about something they go with PURPLE.  So I decided to make PURPLE the theme of my 2025 campaign to raise money for the CFF Annual Fund.  The task is an urgent one . . . we are VERY close to conquering this disease, and Rose is doing her part by participating in a gene therapy trial that has produced some promising results.  Meanwhile civilization itself seems like it is in turmoil -- so more than ever we need the CFF to be there, fighting for the public policy and government agencies we need (e.g., National Institutes of Health, Food and Drug Administration).  Please join me in supporting this important work.
