Purple Hair Challenge!
May is Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month!
May is Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month! We invite you to join CFRI’s Purple Hair Challenge to raise CF Awareness. We challenge you to color your hair purple for the month of May! Participation is easy:
- Color your hair purple. Temporary or permanent dye, wigs, extensions, or even digitally edited photos are all great.
- Donate. Hair isn’t your thing? Make a gift to support the vital programs and services that CFRI offers to the CF community. Or dye and donate!
- Post your purple hair selfie with the hashtag #CFRIpurplehairchallenge, and challenge three friends to dye or donate (or both)!

Mothers’ Day Celebration
Send Cards To Promote CF Awareness and To Support CF Research and Programs!
CFRI’s annual Mothers’ Day Celebration promotes awareness of CF and is one of our most important fundraisers to support CF research and programs. We provide you with beautiful cards to send to friends and families, inviting them to help improve the quality of life and health of those living with CF. Inspired by the story of a young child who heard his diagnosis of cystic fibrosis as “sixty-five roses,” the rose symbolizes hope for a cure for CF. The artwork was painted by Wanda Olson, to honor her daughter Michele, who passed away from CF complications.
To receive cards, email your contact information and quantity to mconvento@cfri.org
