ThankYou!
There are no words to express how thankful I am to all of you.
We are thrilled with the number of participants that held their own virtual walk or run and all those who gave so generously
during this difficult time.

All proceeds from the Violet Rippy 5K for PF benefit the
Dorothy P. & Richard P. Simmons Center for Interstitial Lung Disease.
Your kind support allows the Simmons Center to continue to fund
cutting-edge research and to support and educate patients,
families and caregivers.
We all share a common bond and passion, and we will never stop
fighting until we find a cure.
All of us together can make a difference.
