In order to grow and plan strategically for the future, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation needs big picture volunteers to leverage their network in order to maximize the dollars available for CF research. As a member of the Board, I assist in any way possible to achieve that goal. My job is to continue my leadership role for Wine on the Water and to step up as a leader at other CF events. We are first and foremost a fundraising Board and I work diligently to identify any major gift opportunities as well as continue to build Wine on the Water as a successful fundraiser. The CF Foundation is 4 Star (out of 4 Stars) rated charity by charitynavigator.org for our Financial and Accountability & Transparency.

We offered Dermapen, a skin micro-needling device that triggers your body to send collagen and elastin to the skin's surface resulting in a tighter, firmer and younger looking appearance. We also offered Botox, Juvederm, Latisse, custom facials and chemical peels. To help you feel younger on the inside, we offered Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Therapy for men and women, and Weight Loss Management. Renaissance PPON (Preferred Prenatal Outcome Network) was a delivery system for a coordination of care for drug addicted pregnant women. At no cost to the patient, we managed their addiction care with a network of providers (addiction specialists, ob/gyns, hospitals) to help bring healthy babies into this world.
