Climbing for a cause.
Life is full of peaks and valleys. While we don’t always control where the valleys take us, we can absolutely choose the summits we chase.
I’m heading to Tanzania in October with St. Jude Heroes and Embark Exploration Co to trek up Mount Kilimanjaro and raise funds for childhood cancer research and treatment at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
With your help, we can cross the fundraising finish line. Join me in helping find a cure for childhood cancer as I raise funds for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Every dollar makes a difference.
Together, we can ensure that many more children have the chance to climb their own mountains, supported by the care and research that only St. Jude can provide.
The hard associated with climbing a mountain is nothing compared to the hard kids and their families face when battling cancer.
As a St. Jude hero, I have chosen to climb for a reason bigger than myself, raising awareness and funds for the kids and families at St. Jude. I am training hard and with your donation we can cross the fundraising finish line together.
Did you know:
- Families never receive 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. St. Jude won't stop until no child dies from cancer.
- St. Jude freely shares the discoveries it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
Donate today to help me reach my goal. Even when the climb is done, the fight to end childhood cancer continues.
