Unite. Celebrate. Walk
Join us for the third annual PFF Walk in Chicago, New York City, Washington, D.C. and new in 2019, Dallas!
The PFF Walk offers an inclusive community for those who have been touched by pulmonary fibrosis to unite in the search for a cure, share their stories, celebrate their loved ones, and walk together with our community of patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and friends. Funds raised through the PFF Walk program support vital research and sustain patient initiatives that help those living with the disease and their families live better lives.

Ways to Get Involved
Walk with us: Join a team, create a team, or sign up individually at one of our four Walk sites across the country. Registration is free and those who raise $100 will receive our commemorative PFF Walk t-shirt.
Participate Virtually: Can’t make it to one of our Walks? No problem! The Virtual Walk is an opportunity for you to fundraise, interact with the PF community across the globe, and bring awareness to your community. Walk with us at a park in your neighborhood on the day of one of our Walks or on another day that's convenient for you. You’ll receive a guide on how to engage with us on social media to join in on the fun!
Community Walk: A Community Walk is a great way to get your hometown involved and expand the PFF's footprint across the nation. Community Walks normally take more planning and preparation than participating as a virtual walker, but it provides a great opportunity to host your own event, take charge, and lead the way in your neighborhood!
Invite friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers to join you at a secure space such as a local park. Ask local business for in-kind donations. The PFF has all the tools and resources you’ll need to plan a successful Walk! Click here to fill out our interest form and our team will reach out to help you get started.
Volunteer: The success of the PFF Walk would not be possible without the generosity of volunteers who give their time and talents on the day of the Walk. For more information on roles or to sign-up, please email Emily Williams at ewilliams@pulmonaryfibrosis.org.
Local, national, and exclusive sponsorship opportunities are also available for individual Walk sites or across all four physical locations. Please contact Amy Kozyra-Wardzala, Director of Special Events, at awardzala@pulmonaryfibrosis.org or 312.878.2351 for more information.
