On April 18, 2015, Team Lindley Law hiked 30.1 miles of the Appalachian Trail along the North Carolina and Tennessee border to raise funds and awareness in the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s mission to find a cure. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease affecting the digestive and respiratory systems. Though medical advancements have been made, the cure for cystic fibrosis has yet to be discovered.
Comprised of Trey Lindley, Rusty Gibbs, Al Murray, Ben Johnson, Jason Lindley, Greg Williams, Walker Miller (who agreed to carry bricks for donations of $250 and up), John Schmidt, and Skye McMahan, Team Lindley Law’s goal was to raise at least $30,000, or $1 for each of the 30,000 Americans battling cystic fibrosis. Together with other participants in the EXTREME Hike for Cure, over $500,000 was raised by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Charlotte Chapter.
Trey serves on the CFF Charlotte Chapter’s Executive Board.
