"No child should die in the dawn of life."
This was the dream of Danny Thomas when he founded St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in 1962. On Saturday, June 24th I'll be participating in my first Tough Mudder raising money in the hopes of making that dream a little bit more of a reality for the brave children and families who rely on St. Jude. These kids deserve a chance to experience the richness of life and the joys of childhood.
About the Event
The Tough Mudder event I'll be participating in is a 10 mile/20 obstacle course event that involves running, climbing, swinging, and mild electrical shock. It also involves a lot of dirt and mud! I've never done anything like it before but I know that I'll have all the motivation I need when I think of who will benefit. Please help me by contributing what you can and if you'd like to join me let me know!
How Your Donation Helps:
- Thanks to donors like you, no family member ever receives a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food - because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
- Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago.
Join me and together we can help the brave little warriors who rely on St. Jude!
