The areas of our actions
Prix Galien Greece 2021
We saved lives and gave Unlimited Breath! Thanks to our efforts, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and the competent authorities, Greek patients with Cystic Fibrosis gained early access to the revolutionary treatment that “freezes” the disease before it was approved in Europe. A victory for life, awarded with the Prix Galien Greece 2021, the “Nobel Prize of Pharmacy”!
Second chance for life
We support organ donation
"Secret Mission: CF²"
A distinctive educational campaign for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade primary school students. Because the code CF² stands for Cystic Fibrosis and Classified Faculties, the hidden abilities and strengths every child carries within when facing any challenge in life.
Starting from an invisible difficulty, Cystic Fibrosis and lung transplantation, we cultivate in all children empathy, acceptance, imagination and inner strength for every “mission” that life brings.
Learn, Feel, Inspire and Discover your Classified Faculties!
