DESCRIPTION

The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF) invites you to join us for our "New Decade, New Reach" tenth anniversary dinner. The New Decade, New Reach dinner will be held on December 2, 2011 at Chicago’s landmark Field Museum and will reflect on the accomplishments of our first decade and look forward to the ambitious initiatives we have planned for our second decade.

Citation preview

It is a turning point when the dreams and hopes of the few connect to the many, and together they

overcome barriers and push forward to achieve what was once thought to be unreachable. As we cross

our tenth anniversary, we are poised to conquer challenges, expand our reach, and touch the lives

of all those who suffer.

Supporting the New Decade, New Reach dinner allows the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation to

continue the expansion of our programming across the United States and internationally. In particular,

your gift will allow the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation to fund new, peer-reviewed research awards

in pulmonary fibrosis; to expand our patient education and support programs; to continue representing

the interests of the pulmonary fibrosis community through our advocacy work in Washington, D.C.,

and most importantly, to continue being a source of compassionate support for every patient and

family coping with pulmonary fibrosis.
