Join us for a day full of tumor-killing golf!

Mark your calendars for Monday, November 4 for The CureNFwithJack 12th Atlanta Golf Classic!  This year's proceeds will benefit the Walker Lab at Massachusetts General Hospital - a Harvard-affiliated lab dedicated solely to NF1 research, where we will continue to support a postdoctoral research fellow and lab-related expenses. The event will also include a silent auction and fund-a-need campaign.

This year's event will kick off with the Happy Hour Party on Sunday, November 3 from 5-7PM at the Crooked Creek Clubhouse (14250 Creek Club Drive Alpharetta, GA 30004). There is no charge to attend this party - just come and help us celebrate another year of tumor-killing golf!

The big show happens on Monday, November 4 at Iron Horse Golf Club in Alpharetta.  Registration opens at 8AM and shotgun start at 10AM. 

If you're new to CureNFwithJack, you may be wondering who we are and how golf can kill tumors.

Where Does the Money Go?

Through our numerous events and fundraisers, CNFWJ has raised nearly $4 million for NF research on its own behalf and on behalf of other NF-related entities.

CureNFwithJack's fundraising goal this year is to continue to support a postdoctoral research fellow at the Walker Lab and lab-related expenses for a total of $100,000. The Walker Lab at MGH is affiliated with Harvard and the Broad Institute, and utilizes a combination of genetic, molecular and biochemical approaches and both animal and human cell models to improve the mechanistic understanding of NF1 and identify therapeutic targets.

 CNFWJ is also currently funding a ground-breaking gene therapy project at UAB. Among other past distribution of funds, CNFWJ has successfully:  sponsored clinical trials leading to the first NF FDA-approved drug for the reduction of certain NF tumors;  funded a global collaborative project on low-grade brain gliomas; and hosted a symposium concerning NF ophthalmology issues. Additionally, CNFWJ has funded nearly $2 million in various NF research initiatives through its partner-for-a-cure, Children’s Tumor Foundation.
