Renstar Foundation

Once again, a huge thank you to everyone who helped, attended & donated at the 2018 Run for Renstar event. We are very grateful for the continued support we receive. Having the group of Angels attend and watching them interact was wondrous. They really are little miracles and the Renstar Foundation is proud to honour Renee along with raising money to help fund the genetic testing for those not yet diagnosed. Very worthy cause indeed. Donations are still welcome for those who missed the event, please contact us to obtain details. We will update everyone on the tally raised in a month or two once all donations have been received and accounted for. Thanks again🖤

Please note that the Run for Renstar event date is actually Sunday 18th February 2018. Sorry for the date mix up - my mind was in holiday mode!

Due to declining numbers over the last few years, the Renstar Foundation has come to the decision to hold the 'Run for Renstar' biennially. We are a not-for-profit fundraising group with no current sponsors. It becomes very hard to outlay money to hold the event while trying to increase the size & quality of the event.

We are still extremely passionate about raising funds for Angelman Syndrome (in particular helping fund the UBE3A mutation testing required by families suspected but not yet diagnosed).

Hopefully next year we will be able to gain a higher attendance number & raise the much needed funds.

Until next year, we thank all of our supporters along this journey so far. Without you we wouldn't have gotten to where we are today 💙

Once again we had perfect weather for the Run for Renstar! A very big thank you to our continued supporters, new faces & old...also to those who weren't able to make it but have ever so kindly donated to our fundraiser. We will update the total funds raised once all monies have been received & updated with the Mater Foundation. Thank you all again, we really appreciate your time & effort!

Rain, hail or shine....the Run for Renstar will be on tomorrow morning. 7:30am arrival for 8:00am start. Look forward to seeing you all there!

Last year at the Run for Renstar we decided to make our winners official. Matthew Brand & Stacey Ogilvie were our fastest (on foot) participants & have now been engraved onto our Renstar plaque. Each year we will honor our winners by doing the same......just to add a little encouragement for our event participants 😎🏃🏻

Our 2015 Run for Renstar event raised $2859 towards the UBE3A mutation testing for families suspected but not yet diagnosed with Anglican Syndrome. In the five years we've been running the foundation our total funds raised are $24,352.00. We are very proud of this figure and look forward to increasing this amount in years to come.

Another sucessful year with some amazing support from friends and family for the 2015 Run for Renstar! We want to thank all those who took the time to attend, donate & purchase shirts, from the bottom of our hearts. We couldn't have done it without you all
