The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Breath of Life Gala on Saturday, March 3, 2018 at The Palace Hotel in San Francisco, is an annual black-tie dinner, reception, and auction for those who join us in the search for a cure to cystic fibrosis. This annual event is regularly attended by more than 275 people.

The Breath of Life Gala benefits the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF). Cystic fibrosis is a life threatening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive systems of approximately 30,000 children and adults in the U.S. More than 10 million Americans are unknowing, symptomless carriers of the defective CF gene. The CFF has a unique and successful approach to developing drugs for a rare disease. This drug development model known as venture philanthropy, has created a robust pipeline of therapies that target the disease.

We respectfully ask you to support us through an in-kind donation for our auction. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a 501(c)3 charitable organization with the mission to provide all people with the disease the opportunity to lead full, productive lives through funding research and drug development. With your support, we can achieve our mission! Your donation is 100% tax deductible, and your company’s support will be acknowledged within our event program book.

While great advancements have been made, we still have a great deal of work ahead of us. With the passionate commitment of our many friends around the globe, we will continue to press toward a cure. Please join us in adding tomorrows for those living with CF!
