Tea for Blu

Tea for Blu 2025 – April 13th – Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto.

Our 5th annual Tea for Blu took place at the Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto on Sunday April 13, 2025. Our guests joined us for an afternoon of socializing, a delicious tea service, fun activations an exciting raffle.

Blu Genes is proud to share that Tea for Blu 2025 supported SickKids Hospital and Dr. Ivakine’s Lab as they develop and evaluate gene editing treatments for Tay-Sachs disease, as well as the University of Massachusetts as they develop the gene therapy for their second clinical trial targeting a treatment for Tay-Sachs disease.

Support from our sponsors and guests propels this research towards finding a meaningful treatment and potentially a cure for Tay-Sachs Disease. Your support of Tea for Blu enables this ground-breaking research to be a reality that may make the dream of curing Tay-Sachs Disease come true.

Thank you to all of our sponsors and guests who joined us at the  iconic Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto. We hope to see you next year for Tea for Blu 2026 as we celebrate and raise important funds to find treatments for rare diseases.
