Are you familiar with 65 Roses® Day?

Every year on June 5 (6/5), we reflect on the “65 Roses” story. It dates back to 1965 when observant 4-year-old, Richard “Ricky” Weiss, hearing the name of his disease for the first time, pronounced cystic fibrosis as "65 Roses." Today, "65 Roses" is a term often used by young children with cystic fibrosis to pronounce the name of their disease.

This is a time for us to celebrate the collective power, determination, and resiliency of our entire cystic fibrosis community. Although we’ve made a lot of progress in research and care, our work is not finished until there is a cure for every person with CF.

Friend, as a committed donor to the CF Foundation, we ask for you to support us on this special day by joining the 65 Roses Club with a recurring monthly donation. Further your commitment to helping us accelerate our work to advance more therapies and ultimately a cure. Joining the club is easy. Choose a monthly donation amount and help us make a lasting impact. 

Please accept our invitation to join the 65 Roses Club. And together, we will help make CF stand for Cure Found.
