Tea for Blu 2025

Our 5th annual Tea for Blu took place at the Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto on Sunday April 13th, 2025.

Thank you to all of our sponsors and guests for joining us for an afternoon of socializing, a delicious tea service, fun activations an exciting raffle.

Your support of Tea for Blu enables ground-breaking research to become a reality that may make the dream of curing Tay-Sachs Disease come true.

This year Blu Genes continues to support SickKids and the University of Massachusetts.  We will support a dedicated research team at SickKids as they work with gene editing technology – CRISPR Cas-9 to permanently change the Tay Sachs Disease gene – helping to eliminate symptoms from patients.  Blu Genes will also continue work that is leading to the second clinical trial for Tay-Sachs that is targeting to be the first FDA approved treatment providing hope for patients diagnosed today and in the future.

With your support we raised $265,000 at Tea for Blu 2025!  We hope you join us next Spring as we continue to raise important funds to find treatments for rare diseases.
