What is 65 Roses Day?

65 Roses Day 2010, will fall on Friday 28 May, and is the annual national awareness day for Cystic Fibrosis (CF) in Australia.

This special day was named after the folklore story of a little boy who could not pronounce his sister's condition, Cystic Fibrosis, and instead called it "65 Roses".

There are a number of ways to be involved but new for 2010 is our Everyday Hero Fundraising page - why not build your own page and show your friends you support Cystic Fibrosis Australia this 65 Roses Day! Visit Everyday Hero - 65 Roses Day.
