Chicago’s 6th Annual NF Hope Concert
A Benefit for Neurofibromatosis
Chicagoland’s top local talent will once again come together under one roof in the fight against Neurofibromatosis (NF) at Chicago’s 6th annual NF Hope® Concert, a benefit set to take place 3 p.m. Sunday, December 7, 2025. Proceeds from the event will benefit Neurofibromatosis Network, an organization serving families and individuals suffering with the neurological disorder Neurofibromatosis (NF).
The NF Hope Concerts were founded by Jeff Leibow (from the hit Broadway show JERSEY BOYS) and his wife, Melody after their daughter was born with Neurofibromatosis (NF), a genetic disorder of the nervous system characterized by tumors that can grow on any nerve in the body without warning. The Leibows conceived the idea for the concert upon the realization that they had an obligation to their daughter and the 128,000 people living with NF in the US alone to educate others about the disorder. Since its inception in 2011, the NF Hope® Concerts have raised nearly $2 Million for Neurofibromatosis research and advocacy.
Over the last twelve years, the NF Hope Concerts invited the biggest names in Las Vegas, Chicago and New York to contribute their talents for the cause. This year, the concert brings back together NF Hope Concert co-founder, JEFF LEIBOW (Jersey Boys, The Other Guys, Gloria Bell) and DANIEL TATAR (This is Us, Grey’s Anatomy and The Chi) to host the event along with some very special guests.
