CF Organizations

There are so many wonderful groups raising awareness and supporting the search for a cure for Cystic Fibrosis. Here are a few of the groups with which we actively participate.


Boomer Esiason Foundation


As a member of Team Boomer, Kim participates in at least one event or race each year to fund raise for the Boomer Esiason Foundation. In 2016, she is participating in 7 races in honor of Colin's 7th birthday.

Kim was recognized as the Team Boomer Athlete of the Month in February of 2016.
