May is Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month: INFORM, CELEBRATE, GIVE

May 1, 2022

Did you know that?

Once again this year, and throughout the month of May, we will increase our actions to raise awareness about cystic fibrosis (CF), but above all, the impact that the disease has on the lives of those affected and those around them.

For the occasion, we have chosen 3 concepts that are essential in our lives.

Follow us and, together, let's take advantage of the month of May to INFORM, CELEBRATE and GIVE, so that hope always remains!

Why is it important?
*Because cystic fibrosis is the most common fatal genetic disorder among Canadian children and young adults.
*Because in Quebec, there are more than 1200 families who live daily with a person suffering from cystic fibrosis. And that requires adaptation, time, kindness, money, but also requires a lot of hope.
*Because living with cystic fibrosis means having hope that, despite everything, time will allow us to study, work, love and, perhaps, start a family and watch it grow.
*Because it is thanks to generous donations, money, time and the sharing of reliable information, among others, that we can hope for and plan for tomorrow.
