It is with much regret that we must announce the cancellation of the in-person Portland Firefighter Stairclimb, originally scheduled to take place September 20, 2020, to protect the health and well-being of our participants, volunteers and staff during the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. We were hopeful that we could hold the event in September, but with the Oregon Health Authority advising that any large gathering at least through September be cancelled, we feel we must cancel the in-person event.

While we recognize this is disappointing, our staff and Volunteer Leadership Team are busy planning a virtual climb to continue to raise awareness and funds for cystic fibrosis, because even amidst this global crisis, our mission to find a cure for CF still moves forward. Wes, Belinda, and family have built such a successful event over the past 11 years, and we want to keep the momentum going! While we will miss seeing you in person so much, we feel we can come together virtually to keep our community safe and together.

Please stay tuned for more ways that you can virtually participate in the 2020 Portland Firefighter Stairclimb and send any ideas you have our way! Join our Facebook group for updates.
