We're excited to officially kick off the 2026 NF Walk season!
Starting April 6, registration opens nationwide-bringing a refreshed look to the same powerful mission: to drive treatments for NF as we work toward a cure.
A New Name. The Same Heart.

This is not a reinvention. It is a sharper, clearer way to share what this movement has always been about: a community coming together to support one another and accelerate progress.
The name NF Walk is simple, direct, and immediately connects people to the mission. It makes it easier for families, friends, and new supporters to find us, join us, and be part of something meaningful.
Same Mission. Greater Momentum.
At its heart, nothing about the NF Walk has changed. It's still powered by individuals and families living with NF. It's still driven by teams, volunteers, and local communities. And it still plays a critical role in moving research forward. Every step, every registration, every dollar raised helps accelerate progress toward better treatments-and ultimately, a cure. At the Children's Tumor Foundation, everything we do is to drive treatments for NF patients as we work toward a cure. The NF Walk is that mission in motion.
