Friend & Family,
I am fundraising to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's lifesaving mission of finding cures for children battling cancer and other life-threatening diseases, and I need your help to reach my fundraising goal. I have been fundraising for St. Jude for almost 40 years dating back to my college days. I have been privileged to serve on the St. Jude Midwest Leadership Board of Directors for over 23 years and have been the Co-Chairman of the St. Jude Telethon for the past 12 years. Through many years with St. Jude, I have seen miracles. The dedicated research of so many talented Doctors have not only given hope to sick children and their families, but have increased the survival rate to over 80%. Please help me and the St. Jude family continue on the path to Save Lives for EVERY CHILD EVERY WHERE!
How your donation helps:
- Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on 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 in 1962. And we won't stop until no child dies from cancer.
- St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands of children.
Thank you for your support! Together we can help St. Jude change the world.
John Kocher
