36th annual Great Strides walk in Bethesda raises awareness for cystic fibrosis
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. (DC News Now) — Many will gather in Bethesda Wednesday evening to join the 5K walk to raise awareness on finding a cure for cystic fibrosis. On May 7, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation will host its 36th annual Great Strides walk at the Elm Street Urban Park. Check-in for the walk will begin at 5:30 p.m., and the run will begin at 6:30 p.m. Organizers noted that Great Strides is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's largest annual fundraiser. Each year, thousands come together to support the mission to cure cystic fibrosis and provide people living with the disease an opportunity to have a long, fulfilling life. DC small business owners take advantage of resources at annual 'POWERUP' summit 'Together, we can raise awareness and fund crucial scientific research, making a difference in the lives of those battling this condition,' wrote the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in a release. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that causes breathing problems and digestive issues, while impacting a person's lungs and other vital organs. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the disease affects about 35,000 people across the U.S. Organizers said the money raised during the walk will go toward the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to complete research and care needed to help advance a cure for the disease.
