If you're a daughter of a PF patient past or present, and you're interested in helping the us serve the PF community and fight for a cure, please join the "Daughters of PF" program. This new volunteer cadre will of women will join hands to raise awareness and to raise funds to support the services provided to those suffering with PF. We have been inspired by the efforts of so many women during this first 10 years of our work, and know that as we enter the next decade, many more of you will have a visible impact!
(Note - there are gentlemen who have done extraordinary work for this cause and we owe them a huge thank you as well.)
The goal of this program is to vastly expand awareness of PF by holding awareness events and fundraisers across the nation so that we generate, via a grass-roots effort, a much broader national understanding of the implications of PF for everyone, and the impact the disease has on families. Funds raised by this program will go towards serving PF patients, advocating for patient and PF community needs, and funding of research.
Those joining us will have the opportunity to have a hand in real change. As the larger community begins to learn what PF is about, that larger community will join us in the work to find treatments and will help us take care of those currently needing information and support.
Members will use their own talents and ideas to create an event in their local area, and the CPF will support their efforts. There will be opportunities for exchange of ideas and discussion of challenges via regular conference calls between the volunteers and the CPF staff, allowing for a true sharing of support and information that will help each volunteer achieve their goals.
You do not have to have experience in event planning, or any other qualification aside from a true desire to help stop PF and to be a part of this community of passionate and dedicated women.
If you would like to join in the Daughters of PF program please email Teresa Barnes at tbarnes@coalitionforpf.org or call (888)222-8541, ext. 702.
