Welcome to the online home of
The Victoria Chapter of the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

The Victoria Chapter of the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CCFF) works to:

•	raise funds to support cystic fibrosis (CF) research for a cure,
•	provide supplementary funding to support the local cystic fibrosis medical clinic on Vancouver Island,
•	provide information, support and advocacy to families affected by cystic fibrosis,
•	and to raise awareness about the impact of cystic fibrosis in Victoria and the surrounding area. Cystic fibrosis is a genetically inherited lung and pancreatic disorder that affects over 50 families in Victoria and many more on Vancouver Island. In the lungs, where the effects of the disease are most devastating, cystic fibrosis causes increasingly severe respiratory problems. Most persons with cystic fibrosis eventually die of lung disease. The mean age of survival as of 2004 is 37.0 years.
