Review for Cystic Fibrosis Research Institute (CFRI), Palo Alto, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I first learned about CFRI 41 years ago when my daughter was born with CF. Because the organization is made up mostly by parents of children with CF (and now people with CF), as well as their close friends, there was never a question about what their overriding goal was. Over all those years the leadership has always been selfless and remarkably committed. I have had so many questions answered, and so many fears allayed by talking with members of CFRI that I'll never be able to adequately express my appreciation.
