![]() St. Jude Children's Research Hospital opened its doors in 1962 with the mission that "no child should die in the dawn of life." Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas, St. Jude specializes in helping children from all over the world overcome cancer and other catastrophic diseases. In 1999, we were looking for a way to give back to the communities in which we operate across the country. Inspired by the courage of the kids of St. Jude, we embarked on our partnership in caring with St. Jude. |

Located in Memphis, Tenn., St. Jude is one of the world's premier centers for the research and treatment of pediatric cancer and other catastrophic diseases. St. Jude has developed protocols that have helped push overall survival rates from less than 20 percent when the hospital opened in 1962 to 80 percent today. St. Jude has treated children from across the country and around the world. Today, approximately 5,700 patients actively receive treatment from St. Jude. With the continued support of customers and the commitment of our team members, we look forward to helping St. Jude make the world a better place for children. |
