If we were to sum up 2023 in one word it would be GROWTH!  Through our partnership with the Billings Clinic and the help of our generous donors, we are able to serve a growing number of those who are living with Cystic Fibrosis.

Because of the generous support of our Cody Team in 2023, we were able to:

  • Purchase a swing set for 5-year-old Alaina to help keep her active and lungs clear.
  • Purchase an exercise bike for Marjean who is 52 and works hard at staying physically active.
  • Purchase an in-ground trampoline for 5-year-old Ivy. Ivy’s mom had this to say about her scholarship, “Cystic Fibrosis has greatly affected every aspect of our lives, but we are determined to continue to live our best lives regardless! We have a big yard and have dedicated part of it to be Ivy’s playground. Ivy has always loved jumping on the trampoline, and it is great exercise for her little lungs.”

In 2023 the Cody Dieruf Foundation offered over thirty REC & FIT scholarships as well as assisted with over twenty requests for financial support for medically necessary travel and medical co-pays that were not covered by insurance. Twelve moms attend the We Walk Together Mothers’ Retreat!

Your support makes a difference! Thank you for giving HOPE in 2023!
