Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF)

Chicago, Illinois, United States of America

Our History:
Founded in 2000 by brothers Albert Rose and Michael Rosenzweig, PhD, the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to identifying effective PF treatments and assisting those living with the disease. The brothers experienced firsthand the devastating effects of PF when their sister Claire passed away from the disease. Both brothers were also diagnosed with PF, and it was their vision and dedication that led to the creation of the Foundation.

Our Mission:
The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation mobilizes people and resources to provide access to high quality care and leads research for a cure so people with pulmonary fibrosis will live longer, healthier lives.

By actively engaging the PF community, the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation has developed essential programs available to those living and working with pulmonary fibrosis. Our signature programs include:
• PFF Care Center Network
• PFF Patient Registry
• PFF Patient Communication Center
• PFF Ambassador Program
• An international network of support groups and online communities
• The PFF Summit
• Comprehensive disease education materials
