Event Description:

The Northern California Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's "Breath of Life" Gala.
This year, we are honored to present the Breath of Life Award to Bonnie and Michael Rose, whose unwavering and extraordinary commitment to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation spans generations. Before their daughter Katie was born with cystic fibrosis, Bonnie and Michael, along with their extended family, were already deeply engaged in supporting the Foundation's mission. Since their daughter Katie's birth, their dedication to advancing research and finding a cure has only grown stronger, making a lasting impact on the CF community.
Join us for an unforgettable evening at The Westin St. Francis Hotel.
This is a black tie optional event. Volunteers must be 21 years and over.
