MAKE ME RUN MORE!
FOR EVERY ONE DOLLAR YOU DONATE, I RUN ONE METER!
My daughter is touched by NF2 and I am running to cure NF2, but we cannot reach the finish line alone. We need you to join us in the fight to end NF2.
Every single dollar received is carefully spent and put directly towards accelerating NF2 research and advancing studies to the next phase. Whether you can give a little or a lot, your donation brings us one step closer to a cure.
Please consider making a donation to help us reach our $30,000 goal. Together, we can make the magic of a cure a reality!!
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
