STATE FAIR MEADOWLANDS TEAMS UP & GOES TRUCKING FOR CYSTIC FIBROSIS FOUNDATION
Did you know that on average Cystic Fibrosis affects over 500 individuals in NJ alone, 30,000 in the U.S. and 70,000 worldwide? While progress is being made to better understand what causes this inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system, there’s no known cure – only better treatments that have extended the predicted median age of survival for a person with Cystic Fibrosis to more than 37 years.
To help increase awareness and funding for the Greater New Jersey Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, State Fair Meadowlands, NJ’s largest annual family-fun event, will be holding a 50/50 raffle each night of the fair; it will also add Cystic Fibrosis as the official not-for-profit, charity organization to its website.
