WHAT IS #SCULLYCOFFEE4NF?

In the summer of 2016, I noticed that coffee shop baristas yelling out names reminded me of Mulder yelling out “Scullaaay!” on my favorite show, The X-Files. So I gave my name as Scully for a laugh, shared the picture with some other fans, and encouraged them to try it, too. I even promised to donate a dollar to the Neurofibromatosis Network for everyone who did it. I didn’t raise a whole lot of money, but the idea to have a #ScullyCoffee4NF day on Scully's birthday was born.

Gillian Anderson rose to fame on The X-Files playing Special Agent Dana Scully. She continues to delight her fans with memorable roles in The Fall, Sex Education and The Crown just to name a few. Ms. Anderson has also been a longtime supporter of the NF Network. As fans of Gillian, we thought this would be a fun way to support the work of the NF Network & celebrate her iconic character’s birthday.

Since 2017, #ScullyCoffee4NF has donated over $18,000 to the NF Network thanks to loyal X-Files fans. We extend deep gratitude to everyone who has donated in the past and thank Gillian Anderson for inspiring generosity in your fans.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE ON FEBRUARY 23RD 2026:

1. Use the name “Scully” at your favorite coffee shop, or just take a creative coffee picture from home. We love the fun pictures, but we want you all to be safe this year, too!

2. Take a picture or video and share it on FacebookX or Instagram and tag it #ScullyCoffee4NF.

3. Make a donation to the NF Network in honor of ScullyCoffee4NF day. Be sure to select ScullyCoffee4NF from the dropdown menu under ‘contributing towards.’  Every $10 donated gets you a chance in our donor away - prizes pictured below. So $20=2 chances to win, $30=3 chances to win, etc. To enter without donating, simply send your name to us by e-mail at scullycoffee4nf@gmail.com. Only one prize per person.

4. Winners will be announced on ScullyCoffee4NF social media channels shortly after February 23 by first name and last initial only. Then simply e-mail us with your top 4 choices and mailing address. One prize per person per year. We will ship to all countries EXCEPT those currently suspended by the USPS. We will do our best to indicate the package is a gift and prepay any tariffs/import duties/fee, but we cannot guarantee thatyou will not be required to pay a fee for delivery. 

If you can’t get to a coffee shop or you don’t drink coffee, no problem - be creative!  The important part is to make the donation at the NF Network, you’ll still be entered in the drawing-the coffee pictures are just for fun!
