ABOUT GEARUP4CF

GearUp4CF was founded by a group of passionate volunteers and is run by dedicated BC staff with support from our incredible volunteers.

Year after year, this ride has continued to grow, welcoming more riders to embark on a route showcasing breathtaking views, with curated pit stops to relish the natural beauty. Join us for a celebratory BBQ, open to all—bring along your family and friends to share the joy.

With over $3 million raised to date, we strive to push boundaries and make an even greater impact in the lives of those living with cystic fibrosis.

A heartfelt thank you to all who have shared, donated, and ridden with us at GearUp4CF in the past—your support drives us forward!

Thank you to those who make this event possible

Your gift makes a difference

Cystic fibrosis is the most common fatal genetic disease affecting children and young adults in Canada impacting over 4,300 Canadians. With the support of generous people like you, huge strides have been made in understanding the disease, helping people live longer than ever.

Cystic Fibrosis Canada leads the charge in improving CF care and research. Yet, crucial treatments like Trikafta are still unavailable for many CF mutations, including the second most common in Canada. Annually, 100 new CF cases emerge, with 2/3 diagnosed through newborn screening. We're dedicated to bridging these gaps and ensuring no one is left behind. Together we can make a difference.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
