This event is coordinated by Melissa and Michael Malerba, and it is held in honor of their eighteen-year-old son Jonathan who was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 in 2009. Through the generous support of previous donors, Committed to Curing NF has successfully raised over $1 million for Neurofibromatosis Northeast! While the Malerbas are overjoyed with the tremendous outpouring of support, they are not going to rest until they reach their ultimate goal… the cure for NF.
