Why We Support St. Jude
K of C St. Jude Council #13172
As many of you know, St. Jude is the Patron Saint of Hope and Impossible Causes, and one of Jesus' original twelve Apostles. He preached the Gospel with great passion, often in the most difficult circumstances. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, he made profound differences in people's lives as he offered them the Word of God.
St. Jude Children’s Hospital makes profound differences to the Children that are patients at that hospital by finding cures and saving their lives which was previously thought to be impossible.
There are additional reasons to support St. Jude Hospital because:
They treat and research life-threatening pediatric diseases, like childhood cancer, and no family ever pays a bill.
By funding groundbreaking research and clinical trials, St. Jude is increasing cure rates and sharing knowledge globally to help more children worldwide.
Furthermore, St. Jude is a highly-rated charity, with a strong financial structure and a history of taking on difficult cases that other hospitals cannot.
Finally, St. Jude operates based on the vision of founder Danny Thomas, who believed "no child should die in the dawn of life" and that no child should be denied treatment based on their background. He also stated and strongly believed that:
“Those who work for the good are as those who do the good.”
This is why I believe St. Jude Children's Hospital is named after St. Jude and why I work hard to support it.…
Can I count on your donation to help me reach my goal?
Because of generous donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – so they can focus on helping their child live. By donating to my fundraising efforts, you are helping to make that possible.
Thank you for supporting me and the lifesaving work happening at St. Jude today.
Let’s cure childhood cancer. Together.
