Karin Knoester's Company Details
Cystic Fibrosis Community Care (CFCC) is the peak community not-for-profit organisation working with and for people with cystic fibrosis (CF) across New South Wales and Victoria. CF is the most common inherited life-shortening chronic illness affecting young Australians today. It is an inherited disease caused by a faulty gene, which primarily affects the lungs and digestive system. There is currently no cure and complications increase with age. CFCC's mission is to assist everyone affected by CF to be well and live fuller lives. We provide information, support and guidance to people living with CF and their families. We also advocate for services and systems that support the CF community and seek to raise awareness, understanding and funds for services and research.
