A fantastic opportunity to meet new people and have some fun, while giving back to the community by helping to raise funds and awareness for the Children’s Medical Research Institute to support research into children’s genetic diseases.

What are Jeans for Genes Day?

1 in 20 kids are born with a genetic disease or birth defect. That’s 1 kid in every classroom. Jeans for Genes Day will be on Friday 4th August 2023. This year, we will have hundreds of wonderful volunteers join us to hit the streets, shopping centers, and train stations across the Greater Sydney Region to help raise vital funds for research that will improve lives by finding cures for children’s genetic diseases. Why not join them to make a difference in children’s lives?
