About Us
Augusta Team 65ROSES is part of the fundraising arm of Miles for Cystic Fibrosis (M4CF), acting as an extension of the Atlanta 65ROSES group. This team was founded in Augusta, GA in 2012 by Stephanie Brantley, an avid runner and mother to three children with CF. Please join her in this quest to support children and adults living with CF! |

Fundraising for Augusta
It takes THE WHOLE TEAM WORKING TOGETHER to reach our goal in support of the cystic fibrosis community. When members join Augusta Team 65ROSES, we ask that individuals set a minimum fundraising goal of $125 per person and participate in the Augusta University Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K.
Here is how you can join our efforts:
- Purchase an Augusta Team 65ROSES T-shirt by making a $15 donation.
- Start a fundraiser and collect donations through our website. Visit the M4CF Fundraising page for helpful tips on designing and initiating a fundraiser.
- Register for the Augusta University race. See the next section for instructions.
- Invite other runners. We can all work together to meet our goal of $10,000 for this year's race by running... Miles for Cystic Fibrosis!!
