Robert Davidson Walk for PF – Markham

CPFF founder Robert left a monumental legacy of awareness, information, and hope for the pulmonary fibrosis community in Canada and around the world.

He established the Canadian Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation in 2009, less than two years after his own idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis diagnosis and a few months before receiving a double-lung transplant. Robert rallied people living with PF, their loved ones, and medical professionals and was a real sense of hope. He launched the CPFF website providing reliable information about the disease for Canadians living with PF, raised funds for research, and started the support groups that were so desperately needed.

It was with great sadness that CPFF announced the passing of Founder Robert Davidson on May 1, 2019, at 71 years of age.
