Vermont Federal Volunteers at Great Strides Walk to Benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

Burlington, VT – Vermont Federal Credit Union staff raised $1,000 and volunteered at the Great Strides Walk to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

On Sunday, September 18th Vermont Federal Credit Union staff members assisted the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to register walkers, hand out information, gather totals for team fundraising and set up for the post-walk barbeque. The Vermont Federal Credit Union team also raised over $1,000 for the event through individual fundraising pages, credit union and staff donations.

Tanya Norris, team captain and Call Center Manager, shared, “This is my fourth year participating in the Great Strides Walk, but my first with my coworkers.” She added, “My hope is that one day CF will stand for cure found. I participate because the funds raised from Great Strides help provide people with Cystic Fibrosis the opportunity to lead full, productive lives by funding research and drug development, promoting individualized treatment and ensuring access to high-quality, specialized care.”
