We are incredibly proud to celebrate our Founder and Board Member, Terese Marr, who has been appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit (MNZM) in the 2026 King's Birthday Honours.
Since co-founding the Runway Foundation in 2015, Terese has dedicated countless hours to supporting children, young people and families navigating ADHD. Through her leadership, vision and unwavering commitment, the Foundation has grown to provide support, advocacy, education, mentoring and life-changing programmes for hundreds of families each year.
Terese has been a passionate advocate for seeing ADHD as a strength, helping shift mindsets within schools and the wider community while ensuring families feel understood, supported and empowered.
This honour recognises not only Terese's service to ADHD support, but also her longstanding commitment to philanthropy and creating opportunities for others to thrive.
On behalf of our Board, staff, volunteers and the many families whose lives have been touched by her work, congratulations Terese. This recognition is incredibly well deserved, and we are grateful for the lasting impact you continue to make in our community.
