Fortè Holdings, Inc., a technology and investment company, has recently pledged its continued support for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF).
Fortè Holdings diverse enterprises include investment in primary stage ventures, real-estate acquisition/development, and healthcare management software.

Fortè Holdings is pleased to announce an on-going financial pledge to the CFF in hopes of new research to assist those afflicted with cystic fibrosis.
People who have cystic fibrosis can have serious breathing problems and lung disease. They can also have problems with nutrition, digestion, growth, and development. There is no cure for cystic fibrosis and the disease generally gets worse over time.
The life expectancy for people with cystic fibrosis has been steadily increasing over the past 40 years. On average, people who have cystic fibrosis live into their mid-30s, although new treatments are making it possible for some people to live into their 40s and longer.
Fortè Holdings, Inc is constantly evaluating partnerships with new charities. Any interested non-profit entities should send a written request to Fortè Holdings.
