The Reach for the Stars Foundation is dedicated to providing individuals afflicted with Cystic Fibrosis and their families with the resources, knowledge and support necessary to manage their unrelenting battle with this insidious disease. Cystic Fibrosis is not only physically debilitating, but carries a heavy financial and psychological burden for families.

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) compromises 30,000 children and young adults in the U.S. Tragically only 50 percent of CF sufferers live to be 30 years of age. CF is characterized by the body's abundant production of very thick and sticky mucus. This mucus becomes an ideal environment for infections and causes blockages throughout the body. Although the disease manifests itself in many ways, it is most commonly the constant infections and buildup of mucus plugging in the lung tissue, that eventually lead to the destruction of the lungs and ultimate death of these children.

…Our efforts are designed to Bridge the Gap!

The Reach for the Stars Foundation is devoted to improving the quality of life for these afflicted individuals as they await the cure, and to help ease the burden of the families as they engage in their battle with CF: a battle that never ends…
