Amerie Strong

Walking for a Cure. Walking for Hope. Walking for Awareness.

This walk is deeply personal for our family.

At just 3 years old, my daughter Amerie was diagnosed with B-cell leukemia. What followed was a journey no parent ever imagines having to walk, intensive treatment, uncertainty, countless appointments, and the strength it took to keep going one day at a time.

Amerie fought with a strength that continues to inspire me. After intensive treatment and three years of monitoring, she is now cancer-free.

But even after the victory, we remain Amerie Strong. STILL.

Still standing.
Still fighting.
Still believing.
Still raising awareness.
Still walking for the children and families who are in the fight today.

This year, our team is participating in the St. Jude Walk in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. We are walking for a cure, for hope, and for awareness, and for every child whose journey is just beginning, every family praying for good news, and every survivor whose story reminds us that there is hope on the other side.

Every step helps save lives.

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® is leading the way in understanding, treating, and defeating childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Donations help support groundbreaking research and ensure that families receiving care at St. Jude never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing, or food. That means families can focus on what matters most: helping their child live.

We know firsthand how important hope is.

So today, I’m asking you to walk with us, donate, share our story, or simply help us spread awareness. Every contribution—no matter the amount—helps move us closer to a world where no child has to face childhood cancer.

For the fighters.
For the survivors.
For the families.
For the ones we lost.
For the cure.

We walk because every child deserves the chance to grow up.

Amerie Strong. STILL.

Thank you for standing with our family and supporting the lifesaving work of St. Jude.

Can we count on you to make a donation or join our team?
