Charity Challenge

Move with Purpose. Stand with the NF Community.

Join Team TFBC this June and help ensure that no one faces neurofibromatosis (NF) alone.

Whether you walk, run, roll, or move in your own way, your participation supports individuals and families across British Columbia through trusted education, support, and advocacy for better care.

The Charity Challenge is an annual event where participants raise funds for local charities while running or walking a 5 km, half marathon, or participating virtually.

This year marks our 13th year of coming together through the Charity Challenge. It is a powerful reminder that every step makes a difference.
