Hi! My name is Ann Matz. I am the proud aunt of Megan Riordan. Megan is 15 years old and has battled cystic fibrosis since the day she was born. However, Megan is also an amazing niece, daughter, sister, cousin and friend! She is a Girl Scout, likes to go boating on Lake Michigan and is learning to drive.
Our family enjoys gathering each year at Chicago’s Great Strides Walk. It is a fun filled day for the entire family that brings awareness to cystic fibrosis. We love to put on our green Team Megan t-shirts and show our support for not only Megan, but all cystic fibrosis warriors. While we missed the Great Strides walk this year, it did not stop our family from donning our Team Megan t-shirts and supporting Megan with a surprise Zoom call!
Please consider donating to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as they continue to work tirelessly to find a cure. Please check with your employer to see if your company has a matching gifts program where they will match the charitable donation you make to the foundation.
Here’s hoping we can all walk together soon!
