Cystic Fibrosis Canada / Fibrose Kystique Canada

Cystic Fibrosis Canada funds research into cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder affecting the lungs and digestive system, while providing support and advocacy for people living with the condition across the country. The organization supports clinical care, invests in laboratory and clinical research to improve treatments and outcomes, and connects patients and families with resources, educational programs, and community networks. Based in Toronto, Cystic Fibrosis Canada works to advance understanding of the disease and increase access to care while helping individuals and families navigate the physical and emotional challenges of living with CF. Through partnerships with hospitals, researchers, and care centers, the charity strives to extend life expectancy and quality of life for the approximately 4,000 Canadians with cystic fibrosis.
