#NFStrong-North Kansas City, Mo

Join a powerful movement of community and compassion at the #NFstrong Walk, a meaningful 5K event supporting the Neurofibromatosis (NF) Network on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at Macken Park in North Kansas City. This is not a traditional race but a "blanket of love"—a scenic, communal walk where every stride raises crucial awareness and funds for one of the most common yet under-recognized rare genetic disorders in the US. With check-in at 9:00 AM and the walk starting at 10:00 AM from the Festival Pavilion, participants come together to promote research, education, and vital support services for children, adults, and families affected by NF.

Embrace the beautiful morning on May 30th as part of a collective effort to make a tangible difference, where the focus is on solidarity, not speed. By creating a pledge page and spreading the word, walkers transform a simple 5K into a profound act of advocacy and hope, strengthening the #NFstrong community with every step taken along the peaceful park paths.
