Social impact is the effect an organization's actions have on the well-being of the larger community. Our Regenrus Cares Program is designed to make a significant, positive change that addresses a pressing social challenge where our focus is to meet the needs for causes that we serve.
“At Regenrus, we measure and report the effect our global community actions have on the well-being of People, Animals and our Planet.”
— Cindy Tysinger
Denton County Friends of the Family was our first local nonprofit charity we supported as part of our Regenrus soft launch on February 23rd, 2018. This organization provides compassionate, comprehensive services to those impacted by rape, sexual abuse, and domestic violence, while partnering with the community to promote safety, hope, healing, justice, and prevention. 13% of all proceeds from our soft launch event, including community donations, were given to Denton County Friends of the Family.
