Imagine…  you find out your child has cancer… your life of worries about Boy Scouts and football games and changed to doing anything and everything to save your child's life.

Where can you turn?

St. Jude's Children's Hospital

The support of caring people like you helps St. Jude Children's Research Hospital continue its lifesaving mission of finding cures and saving children. St. Jude founder Danny Thomas believed that “no child should die in the dawn of life,” and your donations help bring us closer to the day when every precious life can be saved.

I am so amazed by this mission that I have set a goal of raising $10,000 for St. Jude's  – Can you help?  Donate $20 here.

How do your donations help?

  • Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing and food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
  • Because the majority of St. Jude funding comes from individual contributors, we have the freedom to focus on what matters most – saving kids regardless of their financial situation.

  • Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent since it opened 50 years ago.
  • St. Jude is where doctors send their toughest cases because we have the best world’s best survival rates for the most aggressive childhood cancers.
