There will be a concert by "Benny Grunch and the Bunch," local choirs from the NorthShore community singing Christmas carols, great food from local restaurants and businesses, and a number of Christmas gift booths with items for sale. CFF would like to invite you to be part of this celebration.

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and young adults in the United States. CF is a life-threatening respiratory and digestive disease, and the median age of survival for a person with CF is mid-thirties. Despite all the research breakthroughs, we continue to lose precious lives to this disease, including some young people in this community.

Tickets are sold in advance by contacting Jai-Anne Miller at (504) 455-5194 or by visiting our local partners, including Pontchartrain Vineyards.
