Kingston Kin Give $20,000 to Local CF Branch
The Kinsmen Club of Kingston have made another huge donation to the local Kingston Chapter of the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
In the past 45 years, Kinsmen and Kinettes across the country have worked tirelessly to help beat CF, contributing more than $36 million towards cystic fibrosis research and treatment.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a fatal inherited disease, affecting mainly the lungs and the digestive system. In the lungs, where the effects of the disease are most devastating, CF causes severe breathing problems. In the digestive tract, CF often results in extreme difficulty in digesting and absorbing adequate nutrients from food
