Benefiting
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where everyday they work to research, treat, and cure children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center in the country that will treat children for no cost not covered by insurance and no child is ever turned away if the family is unable to fund treatment. For a diagnoses of Acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the most common form of childhood cancer, St. Jude has a 94% survival rate. To treat these children, it costs almost $1.5 million dollars a day to run St. Jude and this is almost completely funded by the public. This is where your contributions can help cure children.
