With the overwhelming success of “Madi’s Yard Sale” in Medicine Hat, Alberta, three families from Edmonton, Alberta have decided to have their own Yard Sale to raise funds and awareness for Rett syndrome. Chris & Katie Smith, daughter Ella, Elana & Steve Terry, daughter Olivia and Michaela & Kelly Kleinsasser, daughter Lennox have organized a 2 day sale (July 3rd & 4th) at the Lendrum Community Hall in support of Rett syndrome. Katie says it is the first year but hopes it will be an annual event.

Thank you to these families for supporting all those living with this rare disorder and making a difference by ‘Building Healthy Tomorrows’. Fundraising does not need to be complicated, if your event educates one person about Rett syndrome then it should be considered a success! If you are interested in creating or supporting a fundraising event, please do not hesitate to contact fundraising@rett.ca for more information.
