Visions. Children with cystic fibrosis want to grow up. They have dreams of the future just like every other child. More than half of them will live into their twenties, but that's when life should be beginning not ending. You see, cystic fibrosis is an hereditary disease that attacks a child's lungs and makes it very hard to breathe. Eventually, it's fatal. And there is no cure. So far. But there is hope. Recent discoveries in genetic research can lead to stopping cystic fibrosis once and forever. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation supports this research. But we need your help. The money you give today will be used immediately to continue the research. And it will go a long way in helping find the cure. Your gift of $15, $25, or even more will give a child more than just a vision of hope. Give the future... call 1-800-343-4300, ext. 321 today. VISA/Master Card accepted.
