Although Blu Genes Foundation grew from a personal mission, our goal is to not only support the development of promising treatment options for Tay-Sachs Disease, but to also fund the groundbreaking research that may one day provide options for families living with other rare genetic diseases as well.

In most cases, two defective copies of a gene - one from each parent - are necessary to cause a genetic disorder in their child. In this case, each parent is a carrier who is generally unaffected by the condition. Since each of these parents provides one copy of the gene to a child, there is a 1 in 4 chance that their child would have the disease. Other possibilities for their child would be two normal copies (1 in 4 chance) or one normal copy and one defective copy; this child would be a carrier (2 in 4 chance).

Blu Genes Foundation was founded 7 years ago - and since then we’ve been able to fund an innovative gene editing research project ongoing at @SickKidsVS, and the fight to find a cure for Tay-Sachs Disease continues.
We are proud of the work and progress made so far!

In some cases, only one defective copy of a gene is enough to cause a genetic disorder. These can arise by a spontaneous mutation (a new error that occurs in the DNA), but generally they are diseases that don’t show their effects right away, so an affected individual has already had a child by the time the disease is apparent.
