The Dominican Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (Fundofq) will hold a fundraising event to acquire medicines for children suffering from Cystic Fibrosis nationwide.

Under the name “Parade of Generations,” this event will take place this Sunday, July 2, at 4:00 in the afternoon within the framework of the VEST International, an outstanding exhibition on beauty, health, energy, and wellness, which will take place from June 30 to July 2 this year at the Catalonia Hotel & Resort, in Santo Domingo.

With the purchase of a 2,000 pesos ticket, attendees will be able to enjoy the parade, featuring the participation of families with children affected by Cystic Fibrosis.
