Cystic fibrosis is a rare, genetic disease that primarily affects the respiratory tract and digestive system . Every three days, a child is born with cystic fibrosis, and 2 million French people are healthy carriers of the gene responsible and can unknowingly pass it on to their children.

In addition to improving the quality of care and the quality of life of patients by offering them individual support, the primary purpose of the association is to support and finance research (funding for basic and clinical research projects, development of clinical trials, dissemination of scientific information).
