The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation will be hosting the 65 Roses Gala on Saturday, March 9, 2019 at

SKY Armory. It will be a fun evening filled with food and drinks, auctions, music and dancing, all to

fund crucial research efforts aimed at curing cystic fibrosis (CF). I am writing to ask for your

support by donating an item for use in our silent or live auction.

These auction donations help us to generate significant revenue, allowing us to make incredible

strides to finding a cure for CF. 60 years ago, the average life expectancy of a child with CF was five

years. Today, people with CF are living well into their 30s, 40s and beyond thanks to the

contributions from donors like you.

As an auction donor, we would ask you to consider donate one or more of the following:

 An item

 Gift basket

 Gift certificate

In return, you will receive:

 Print acknowledgement in the auction description at the event

 An acknowledgement letter for your donation

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a 501C-3 nonprofit, donor-supported organization and is the

leading organization devoted to cystic fibrosis care and treatment. Our mission is to cure cystic

fibrosis and to provide all people with the disease the opportunity to lead full, productive lives. Your

participation will help us raise the necessary funds to support on-going CF Foundation research.

For your reference, our Tax ID # is 13-1930701. It is with the support of the community, individuals

and businesses that we can continue to be successful in our efforts to raise money for life-saving

research. A copy of the latest annual report may be obtained from the Foundation of from The

Charities Bureau, Department of Law, 120 Broadway, New York, NY 10271.

Please complete and return the attached donation form. If you have any questions or require any

further information, please feel free to contact the CNY chapter office at 315-463-7965.

Thank you for your support!

Sincerely,

Amy Spranger
