SCHNAPP DIR EINEN MARKER UND #CROSSOUTCF: MAI IST DER MONAT DER MUKOVISZIDOSE

During Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Awareness Month, we come together as a community to spread awareness, share personal stories, and unite behind a common mission to speed breakthroughs and a cure for alle people with CF. 

Drawing on the concept of “lines” from EE’s “The Magic Line” year-end campaign, our theme for the month is “Cross Out CF.” We will celebrate the “lifelines” that connect and strengthen us, especially in life with CF, and also underscore our shared, urgent mission to eliminate CF from the universe!

The concept of “lifelines” has taken on heightened importance over the past year as the pandemic has kept people physically apart, and yet reminded us all of the essentialness and transcendence of connection. The experience of living in quarantine has taught us to find new ways to stay connected, persevere, and push for breakthroughs for 100% of the CF community.

So here is to connections and support. Here is to forward motion and crossing the ultimate finish line. This month, all lines lead to fast breakthroughs and cures so we can #CrossOutCF for 100% of the CF community with Niemand wird zurückgelassen. 

Here is how you can join us. 

LET’S GET SOCIAL

All month long, we will be sharing personal reflections from the CF community, CF facts-of-the-day, EE throwback memories, and introducing you to amazing CF scientists and Entourage members through photos, videos, quotes, and more! The content will be featured on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn und unsere Blog. Make sure to follow along daily and use the hashtag #CrossOutCF in your own posts!
