Description 
Cystic Fibrosis is a devastating genetic disease that affects over 30,000 people who suffer with this illness in the US and over 10 million people who carry one of the known defective genes whether they know it or not. It effects the lungs and the digestive system which of course are two of the most important parts of our lives; breathing and eating. 25 years ago people with CF rarely made it into their 20's, but today with new therapies and drugs life expectancy averages closer to 40 yrs and is improving every year. This amazing statistic has been made possible by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's relentless efforts. Over 90% of all money collected goes directly to this funding. By donating you will be directly responsible for helping improve the lives and the futures of children such as James pictured on the flyer. He is the son of Betty Choi and Craig Leonard; proprietor of the NYC, Miami and Chicago G-STAR stores.
