Contributions from the Sports Challenge provided for medical research, specialized care clinics, and programs that impart a better quality of life for thousands of people with cystic fibrosis (CF) and, ultimately, search for a cure. More than 90 cents of each dollar donated went toward CF medical research and care centers such as the one at Dell children’s Hospital of Austin and Scott & White Hospital.
