#NFStrong Memphis TN
#NFStrong Memphis TN is a community fundraising walk and 5K event held on Sunday, November 8, 2026, at the East Parkway Pavilion in Overton Park, 389 E Parkway N, Memphis, TN. The event supports the NF Network and its mission to promote scientific research, improve clinical care, provide education and awareness, and offer support to people affected by neurofibromatosis.
The program includes in person and virtual participation options and a separate kids walk for children 12 and under. The event listing shows tiered registration fees for in person and virtual entries, and notes that T shirts are not included with the virtual option. Fundraising features include pledge pages, participant fundraising leaderboards, and team entries.
The NF Network describes neurofibromatosis as a genetic disorder of the nervous system that can cause tumors on nerves anywhere in the body. It affects people across all races and sexes and occurs in about one in every 2,500 to 3,000 births. The organization notes that roughly half of cases are inherited and half result from spontaneous mutation.
A free educational meeting about neurofibromatosis is scheduled the day before the walk. The event materials emphasize community support, awareness, and fundraising to help maintain services for children, adults, and families affected by NF.
