11-Year-Old In Danvers Arranges Walk For Cystic Fibrosis

DANVERS (CBS) - A young boy from Danvers is making a big difference.

May is Cystic Fibrosis Awareness month, and 11-year-old Bailey Witham helped arrange a walk-a-thon at his school, Great Oak School.

On Friday morning, the entire student body walked laps around the campus.
Each lap meant another donation.

Bailey's mom suffers from C.F. and he wanted to help her out.

Late last year, he spoke to his principal and they helped arranged the walkathon.

If you're interested in supporting the kids in their support of CF, you can do it by making checks payable to, Great Oak PAC. They can be sent to:

Great Oak School
79 Pickering st
Danvers MA 01923
