RennerVation Foundation raising money for foster, at-risk youth in Nevada

Academy Award-nominated actor Jeremy Renner has played many roles throughout his career.

Some of his most well-known include Hawkeye from The Avengers, Staff Sergeant William James from The Hurt Locker, and Mike McLusky from Mayor Of Kingstown.

However, one of his most meaningful roles might be as a philanthropist.

On the Disney+ show Rennervations, he and his team converted unused vehicles into vehicles that non-profits and organizations can use. For example, they converted a bus into a mobile recreation center for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northern Nevada.

That’s just one example of work he has done over the years, mostly out of the limelight.

Creating a foundation has been on Renner’s mind for years but he didn’t take the next step until after he recovered from a snowplow accident, which nearly killed him on New Year’s Day 2023.
