Join Us in Making a Difference

Support research to find a cure for Type 2 Neurofibromatosis.

Welcome to HOPE in Action!

We are a club of motivated students who are dedicated to supporting NF2 BioSolutions, a nonprofit organization focused on advancing research and treatment for Type 2 Neurofibromatosis (NF2). NF2 is a rare genetic disorder that causes benign tumors that form on the nerves, often leading to severe pain, hearing loss, balance issues, and even death. This disease can strike anybody but usually occurs in the first two decades of life. So many kids suffer from NF2 disease. How can we help?

Our Goals:

  • Raise Awareness: Spread knowledge about NF2 to build an understanding of our cause.

  • Support Research: Fundraise for innovative treatments that aim to improve the lives of those with NF2.

  • Build Community: Create a network of advocates, researchers, and families united by the common goal—bringing an end to NF2 suffering.

We are inspired by the strength and resilience of the NF2 community and are committed to turning hope into action. Together, we can navigate the challenges of NF2 and move toward a cure.

Join us on this journey—because hope starts here.
