We will receive online bids whilst the auction takes place at the 7th Annual Halloween Bash hosted by VarsityPainting.com. All proceeds raised will be donated to Raise awareness and funds for children’s tumor research and Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) www.advocurenf2.org

The Varsity Painting Halloween Bash kicks off on the 22nd of Oct at 7.30 p.m Pacific Standard Time at the Redux lounge, 1141 Locust Street, Walnut Creek, California. Tickets cost $50 and can be bought on the Varsity Painting website.

What is NF2?

Varsity Painting proprietor, Roland Thoms, who organized the event has a special reason why Advocure NF2 will receive these important funds.  His 14 year old daughter Camille was diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2), a genetic condition in which tumors grow on the nerves of her brain, spine and ears.

What is Advocure NF2?

Advocure is dedicated to advocacy and to strengthening efforts that expedite research contributing to systemic therapies to treat and eventually cure NF2.

It’s important to note that all funds raised will go to research being performed by doctors and scientists working on a cure/ therapy to control tumor growth. While we are not close to eliminating NF2, we are extremely close to containing it and preserving the quality of life for Camille and thousands of others affected. The event hopes to raise a total of $100,000 and all donations made will be matched by the Thomas family.
