The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's Michigan Chapter is hosting the seventh annual Finest Challenge for young professionals, benefiting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The nominated honorees exemplify leadership qualities and are active in the community.
Metro Detroit's Finest makes an incredible difference in the fight against CF. We hope you'll join us in our relentless pursuit of a cure. If you or someone you know is a young professional who wants to change their lives and the lives of others, Metro Detroit's Finest is the right place!
Finest honorees work to raise funds for a cure and spread awareness, while connecting with other young professionals in the area. The chapter will connect honorees with local CF fighters and families, host a kickoff mixer event, and coach you on how to reach your fundraising goal. Honorees will be recognized for their achievements at the Finest Celebration event in fall 2025.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is to cure cystic fibrosis and to provide all people with the disease the opportunity to lead full, productive lives by funding research and drug development, promoting individualized treatment, and ensuring access to high-quality, specialized care.
Description
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is the world’s leader in the search for a cure for cystic fibrosis. We fund more CF research than any other organization, and nearly every CF drug available today was made possible because of Foundation support.
We are a nonprofit donor-supported organization dedicated to attacking cystic fibrosis from every angle. Our focus is to support the development of new drugs to fight the disease, improve the quality of life for those with CF, and ultimately to find a cure.
The Foundation's drug development success has been recognized by Harvard Business School and by publications such as Forbes and The Wall Street Journal.
Based in Bethesda, Md., the Foundation funds and accredits a national care center network that has been recognized by the National Institutes of Health as a model of care for a chronic disease.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is one of the most efficient organizations of its kind and is an accredited charity of the Better Business Bureau's Wise Giving Alliance.
