Jessica's favorite physical activity, since she was a little girl, had been cheerleading because of the pride and teamwork the sport brings. With her best friend, Tori, as her Peer Support, the two help each other to grow personally and physically through cheerleading. "This sport helps me manage my CF physically because I exercise 4 days a week for 3 hours. It helps the mucus in my lungs move, and also helps me build my lung strength. Mentally the sport helps me through the pride and teamwork helping me to not give up even if it is hard on my CF." This grant will allow Jessica and Tori to receive private cheerleading lessons to build their skill, health and enjoyment of the sport together.
