MN Walk to Breathe
The Pulmonary Fibrosis Support Group of Minnesota (PFSG-MN) was founded in 2011 by patients from the U of M Interstitial Lung Disease Clinic. PFSG-MN is dedicated to offering support, education, and hope to those impacted by pulmonary fibrosis. While closely connected to the U of M, membership is open to everyone—no affiliation with the university is required!
September is Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month, and many cities across the nation host walks to raise funds and awareness. Last year, we held our first walk in the Twin Cities, which was a great success. We’re excited to continue this tradition with our Second Annual PFF MN Walk to Breathe. The walk will include a brief opening ceremony, information about pulmonary fibrosis, and a walk at Central Park Roseville. Gather your friends and family to join us as we raise funds and awareness for the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF).

The MN Walk to Breathe is open to everyone and unites all working to make a difference in the fight against pulmonary fibrosis (PF). Our goal is to educate the community about the impact of PF, a complex disease without a cure that affects more than 250,000 Americans annually, and approximately 50,000 new cases are diagnosed each year.
Because of the work of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF), there is hope for those living with PF. Funds raised will support the PFF’s efforts to accelerate research, advance improved care for those living with the disease, and provide unequaled support and education resources for patients, caregivers, family members, and healthcare providers.
But we can't do this without you! Only with your support can we keep the PFF's mission active. Please click the "Donate" button to make your gift today. If you plan to attend the walk, we ask you to click "Register" on the right to register for yourself or create a team today! Thank you in advance for your generous support!
