A message from Heather Davidson, wife of CPFF’s late founder Robert Davidson. We would like to celebrate our community who has stood with CPFF over the last 15 years! Back when Robert was diagnosed, there was no medication to treat the disease. Today there are two drugs that slow the progress of pulmonary fibrosis. There was no support group in Canada. Today there are 25! Robert would be so proud to see how much the Foundation has grown and how much has been achieved. Thanks to all who have made it possible for CPFF to support and advocate for PF patients and caregivers, fund vital research, and build awareness! https://lnkd.in/gWUgHjrj

** A message from Heather Davidson, wife of CPFF’s late founder Robert Davidson** “Robert would be so proud to see how much the Foundation has grown and how much has been achieved. Not only funding research and establishing support groups, but giving hope to so many people with all the information on the website. Truly, this was what he looked for back in 2007 when he was diagnosed. His dream has come true and is ongoing.” Thanks to all who have made it possible for CPFF to support and advocate for PF patients and caregivers, fund vital research, and build awareness! More inspiration and emcouragement from our executive director Sharon Lee,(李慧玲) MA, CFRE in the post below.
CPFF Turns 15! We are beyond thrilled to celebrate the 15th Birthday of the Canadian Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (CPFF) in the most incredible way possible—by surpassing our fundraising goal by 155%! Together, we’ve raised an astounding $154,595—far exceeding our $100,000 target! But we’re not done yet! With two final walks happening this Saturday, September 28 in Montreal, QC and Yarmouth, NS, can we push even further and reach $160,000? Every step brings us closer to more research, more support, and more hope for Canadians living with pulmonary fibrosis. A special thank you to everyone who has made this celebration possible! Let’s make the final push together! Here’s to another year of inspiration, compassion, and progress. Together, we are making a difference! Thank You #HopeBreathesHere #TackleTheCrackle Pictured here: Heather Davidson – Co Founder of CPFF; Sharon Lee, Executive Director; and Alexis and Jake Davidson—grandchildren who represent the next generation of PF advocates.

Thanks to an incredible team and effective strategic outreach, CPFF successfully expanded our national walk from three to six locations, plus two DIY walks in Kelowna, BC, and Yarmouth, NS. With strong media coverage from major outlets and impactful social media content, we raised nearly $160,000—surpassing our $100,000 goal by 60%. These funds will support our four key pillars: patient and caregiver support, education and awareness, research, and advocacy. A heartfelt thank you to everyone for “Shining a Light” on the importance of “Knowing the Signs of PF.” (Left to right: Tina Finelli Strategic Marketer, Sharon Lee,(李慧玲) MA, CFRE, Todd Georgieff, Shelly Monaghan, CHRL, Marsha Clyne) #HopeBreathesHere Canadian Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation
