    PFF Walk - NYC Metro

    The PFF Walk unites the pulmonary fibrosis (PF) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) community in raising funds and awareness for the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation. Join us as we walk together toward a cure!

After the walk, we invite participants to stay for a celebration with family-friendly activities and light refreshments.
