Participants of all ages are encouraged to register and raise funds!  

It's free to get started, and there are no registration fees, or minimum fundraisings required to support CF Canada. We will provide you with plenty of useful tools to help you raise as much as possible.   

When you register online, we will ask you to set a fundraising goal. We encourage you to aim high while being realistic. That said, you’re not held to your initial goal, and you can change your fundraising goal on your page at any time. We have helpful hints, tips and toolkits to help with your fundraising for you to check out. Make sure to consult your ‘Welcome Guide’ from your sign-up email to see how you can get started. 

From time to time, Cystic Fibrosis Canada may share some ChangeMaker stories through social media providing examples and inspiration to our community about the types of fundraising they can do. We encourage you to tag us on our social media platforms so we can repost and engage with you. When you sign up online you’ll have access to a toolkit that has information, tips and tools to help with your own online promotion. 

We are honored that you’ve decided to support us and we are incredibly grateful for your fundraising efforts. Depending on timing and location, we may not be able to send a staff member or speaker to support your event, but we would be happy to speak with you to see what is possible. We are a small team and wish we could be everywhere, but, that is not always possible.

The amazing fundraising tools that you'll receive when you sign up include: 

• A personal Fundraising Page you can customize to share your story, details about your fundraiser and collect donations.  
• A personal dashboard that gives you a quick look at your fundraising progress.  
• Message templates to help you craft emails and social media posts asking for support. 
• Downloadable resources—including our Welcome Guide, In Support logos, templates, and more—all to help promote and support your fundraiser. 

We have created for you an “in support of Cystic Fibrosis Canada” logo designed to help fundraisers achieve a branded, polished look for their letters, flyers and other event materials. You can find different versions of it here. 

However, this logo may not be used in connection with any products or services for any commercial purposes unless authorized by CF Canada under a signed license agreement. 

There may be times when donors would like to give you a donation in the form of cash or cheques. Submitting your offline funds is easy and convenient! All offline donations can be recorded, submitted, and paid for on your online fundraising page. Our website allows you to record the donor’s information for tax receipt purposes and pay for the donation using your personal credit card.

We collect your personal information in order to process your donation, issue a tax receipt, and provide updates about our impact and other ways to help. Your personal information will not be sold or traded with other organizations. 

In an open-air environment, there is less concern for person-to-person transmission of infections but travelling with other people with CF in a car, or meeting them socially increases the level of risk.  

People with CF may attend Cystic Fibrosis Canada hosted outdoor events but are advised to maintain a distance of at least six feet (about two meters) from other individuals with CF at all times.
