The Live Fearlessly Foundation is a non profit organization set out to help inspire, encourage, and enable people with cystic fibrosis to live a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle.
our mission:
Live Fearlessly is dedicated to inspiring, encouraging, and empowering individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) to live happy, healthy, and active lives. We believe that by helping people discover their passion for activities, we can build their self-confidence and motivate them to push their boundaries. Whether it's surfing, golfing, yoga, or gymnastics—activities they may have once thought impossible—we're here to support and show that they can achieve more than they imagined.
In addition to supporting those living with CF, we now extend our assistance to individuals who are on the lung transplant journey. Our mission is to help them regain their confidence and quality of life as they navigate this significant transition. Together, we work to break down mental and physical barriers, making it possible to live a fuller, more vibrant life despite the challenges.
