The 11th Annual Run4Rett was a great success. Not only was it a beautiful day, but the highest on-line combined (registrations & donations) amount raised, approximately $50,000 and counting. As the pledge sheets are tallied. Combined with the silent auction sales. The registration on the day of the event and the continuing on-line donations at www.rett.ca, the number continues to rise
