Hi Friends!
It’s Katrina and Kyle, and we are putting 52.4 miles to good use and both running a full marathon to help cure NF2 (see more information about the disorder below). This is the first time we are running for a charity, and we are so excited to be a member of the Cure NF2 team.
Every single dollar received is carefully spent and put directly towards accelerating NF2 research and advancing studies to the next phase. I am just one small part of an entire team trying to reach a goal of $60,000. Please consider donating so I can reach my goal of $1,222 by race day!
Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) is a rare disorder affecting 1/28,000 people and is characterized by the development of tumors like schwannomas that cause significant daily physical and emotional suffering for patients. Finding a cure or preventative treatment is crucial to ensure that those living with NF2 can lead full and productive lives. Additionally, because mutations in the NF2 gene are present in many other benign tumors and cancers, developing a cure for NF2 could ultimately pave the way for treating a wide range of other conditions, including sporadic vestibular schwannomas, meningiomas, and over twenty cancer types that contain NF2 mutations.
