Hike 4NF Update   

In just 28 days Jodie, Kevin and Dustin will put a few belongings in their backpacks and Hike4NF through the spring, summer, and fall.  They will weather the rain, heat, fatigue, miles, storms, and who knows what else.

Their mission: to spread the word.  "This is what Neurofibromatosis (NF) is.  This is how you can help."  Like the politicians combing the US to shake hands, they will roam this vast country on behalf of us, people affected by NF.  
 

They will share their knowledge of NF and share their stories.  Their goal is to collect $100,000 for NF Inc.  To help better the lives of those affected by NF.  
 

What can you do?  Make a donation.  Share their website with family and friends to make a donation.  Meet them on their journey.  Walk a few miles.
 

They are counting down.  They have just 4 weeks till they begin.  Lets give them a sign of support and make a donation.  Lets show the country how strong we are in numbers.  How we want research.  We want cures.  We want doctors to specialize in our surgical needs.  The louder we give and share this story with others, the better we will be heard.  I know this to be true!
 

So give what you can and pass it on to others.  Let's help Jodie, and Dustin and Kevin begin their trek with our sign of support and our blessing.
