MagicCarpetRideGala Why St. Jude?

Why St. Jude?
St. Jude is a beacon of light in a parent’s
darkest night.
St. Jude is where some of today's most gifted
researchers are able to do more science more
quickly; where doctors across the world send their
toughest cases and most vulnerable patients and
where no family ever pays for anything. St. Jude is
America's 2nd-largest health-care charity, with a
model that keeps the costs down and the funds
flowing, so the science never stops.
The world’s epicenter for the research and
treatment of childhood deadly diseases
Founded by the late entertainer, Danny Thomas,
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital opened in
1962 for the purpose of finding cures for childhood cancer and other deadly diseases. Since that
time, St. Jude has emerged as the world’s premier
pediatric cancer research center and has raised
The 2nd Annual
the overall cure rate for childhood cancer from
less than 20 percent to 80 percent today. St. Jude
has a unique mission: to serve as a national and
international resource for the medical community
in the struggle against pediatric cancers and other
deadly diseases. In fact, St. Jude has one of the
largest and most active sickle cell disease programs in the nation.

St. Jude's goal is to develop cures that can be
shared freely to benefit children worldwide

When a partner, donor or volunteer supports St.
Jude, they are contributing not only to St. Jude
patients, but to children everywhere who benefit
from St. Jude’s life-saving research. With your
help, this essential research will endure so that
Danny Thomas' dream of "No child should ever
die in the dawn of Life" may one day become a
reality.
