Peer To Peer

Piper’s Angels Foundation’s “Peer To Peer” (P2P) program was established to unite and empower the cystic fibrosis community through dedicated mentorship to inspire authentic living.  This includes addressing the evolving physical, financial, and socio-emotional needs of individuals personally impacted by CF to achieve a sustainable desired quality of life. 

 

Participants in the P2P program will find guidance through the leadership of our mentors that will empower them to enhance their lives and promote positive living with cystic fibrosis.

I would love to personally thank Pipers Angels Foundation for giving me the opportunity to be a part of their virtual One to One Peer Mentorship Program. I am lucky to be one of the recipients who has been paired up with a wonderful mentor. I had a delightful zoom meeting getting to know Katie and talking more about the struggles with having CF to another fellow CFer. It has been quite hard to get to know other CF warriors especially due to COVID. Having this opportunity has helped me to be more connected with someone who understands the tribulations that a CFer goes through. I am excited to get to know her more! I know this program will truly help so many other CFer's like it has helped me greatly.
