The Cody Dieruf Benefit Foundation for Cystic Fibrosis – Breathin' Is Believin'

THE CODY DIERUF BENEFIT FOUNDATION HAS HELPED OVER 200 FAMILIES
TOUCHED BY CYSTIC FIBROSIS IN THE MONTANA AREA, SINCE 2005.

THE AVERAGE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF A PERSON WITH CYSTIC FIBROSIS
IN THE U.S. IS APPROXIMATELY 47 YEARS. IN 1962, THAT AVERAGE
WAS JUST 10 YEARS OLD.

RUNNING, CLIMBING, RIDING AND EVEN PLAYING A WIND INSTRUMENT
CAN BE HARD WORK WHEN IT’S DIFFICULT TO BREATHE. CF IS A PROGRESSIVE,
FATAL DISORDER THAT DAMAGES THE LUNGS AND DIGESTIVE SYSTEM.

WHO IS CODY DIERUF? CODY PASSED AWAY APRIL 28, 2005, FROM CYSTIC
FIBROSIS AT 23. HER FAMILY FORMED THE CODY DIERUF BENEFIT FOUNDATION
TO CARRY ON HER LEGACY AND TO HELP OTHERS LIVING WITH CF.
