We were so excited to be able to support the Iowa Shine a Light Walk this year! Shine a Light NF Walk is the signature fundraising event of the Children’s Tumor Foundation. Their goal is to spread awareness of neurofibromatosis and schwannomatosis - genetic conditions that collectively affect more than 4 million people worldwide - and raise critical funds to advance research and treatments.
