Woodstock resident Jess Streib has fond memories of being a Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) poster child, from dressing up for fancy charitable banquets to passing out gold medals at sporting events. But little did she expect to be chosen as the CF Ambassador for Cars & Q for the Cause at 43 years old.

Cars & Q for the Cause is an esteemed car show and party, which has raised $1.7 million to benefit CFF. Cystic fibrosis is a rare, progressive disease that causes persistent lung infections and limits breathing function.

Streib was diagnosed at birth when the survival rate was just 13 years. Thanks to CFF-funded drug trials, tremendous medical breakthroughs have all but cured CF. Trikafta, Streibs most recent therapy, is the single greatest therapeutic advancement in the history of the disease, offering treatment for its underlying cause, which could eventually benefit more than 90% of people with CF.

Meet Ambassador Jess Streib at this years Cars and Q for the Cause on Saturday, April 18, from 4:00-7:00pm at 8200 Roberts Drive, Atlanta. Hosted by Choate Construction, the fundraiser will feature more than 120 cars, barbecue and brews, and a silent auction.
