Grumpy's Team

Why We Support St. Jude

William “Grumpy” Squires was one of the most generous people we have ever known. We found evidence of that when he died and Debbie learned he had been regularly contributing to St. Jude for many years. We don't know why he was drawn to St. Jude - but we know he never let a child leave his sight without candy or ice cream or a soda!  

September will be one year since he died. We are walking to raise money for St. Jude in his honor. Please join us on Grumpy's Team! The walk is Sept 23 in Boston. If you can't join us, please contribute here. 

We’re joining the nationwide movement to honor Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. And support those who need us most — the kids of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

You can support by making a donation or joining our team! Can we count on your support?

When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was considered incurable. Since then, treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent.

And because St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes, every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

Thank you for supporting us and the lifesaving work happening at St. Jude today. Let’s cure childhood cancer. Together.
