2010 Run to benefit the Children’s Tumor Foundation
Kristy and Jane are back!
Announcing our 2nd annual Run to benefit the Children’s Tumor Foundation!

Last summer we raised over $12,000 for the Children’s Tumor Foundation, a wonderful group that is dedicated to improving the health and well-being of individuals and families affected by neurofibromatosis. This year we aim to do the same!

Please sponsor me when I run not only the 20K New Haven Road Race on Labor Day, but this year also the ING Hartford Marathon on October 9th! This is one of the NF Endurance Team's Signature Events.

My daughter Jane is 3 years old. She was born with NF, a condition that causes nerve tumors. She has tumors on her face, jaw, and neck (trigeminal plexiform neurofibromas) and behind both eyes (optic gliomas). This year Jane started an experimental medication (interferon) to help slow the growth of her tumors, as the only other available treatment is radical surgery.

By donating to the Children’s Tumor Foundation you can help fund the development of new therapies for NF.

Thank you!

Kristy Rath & daughter Jane

Below is a video from the Children’s Tumor Foundation that demonstrates how your support benefits nearly 2 million people worldwide that are affected by Neurofibromatosis. I hope you’ll please take a few minutes to watch the video and perhaps be as motivated as we are to support The Children’s Tumor Foundation.
