About St. Jude
Since opening 50 years ago, St. Jude
Children's Research Hospital has changed the way the world treats childhood
cancer and other life-threatening diseases. No family ever pays St. Jude for
the care their child receives and, for every child treated here, thousands more
have been saved worldwide through St. Jude discoveries. The hospital has played
a pivotal role in pushing U.S. pediatric cancer survival rates from 20 to 80
percent overall, and is the first and only National Cancer Institute-designated
Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted to children. It is also a leader in the
research and treatment of blood disorders and infectious diseases in children.
St. Jude was founded by the late entertainer Danny Thomas, who believed that no
child should die in the dawn of life. Join that mission by visiting stjude.org or following us on

Proceeds benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, TN. Giveaway
