Volunteering
We
are always looking for help at the chapter, whether at an event, before an event,
or just in general. Everyone has something to offer our chapter, so please feel
free to give us a call if you are interested. You do not have to be an expert
in cystic fibrosis - just a person with time, energy and the desire to help.
Find out here about
why some of our volunteers remain dedicated after all these years!
