The Joey Fund and The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation are working on a cure.

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and adults in the United States today. One in 31 Americans are symptomless carriers of the defective CF gene. Currently, there is no cure or control.

The Joey Fund, which works in partnership with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, is an independent fund established by individuals in November 1986 in memory of Joey O'Donnell, a courageous fighter and victim of cystic fibrosis.

In times of extreme sickness or need, New England cystic fibrosis patients and their families through the Joey Fund and the various Cystic Fibrosis clinics throughout Massachusetts have a unique opportunity to receive financial assistance for CF related problems. Today, Joey O'Donnell lives on through the Joey Fund, which has raised over $25,000,000. read more....
