Thank you for joining us on October 17, 2025, for the Miracles on the Bay at Pier 27 in San Francisco, California. St. Jude supporters from Northern California and beyond enjoyed a networking cocktail hour, a seated dinner, a hosted bar, a live auction and the best after-party in town, all to help further advance the lifesaving mission of St. Jude: Finding cures. Saving children.®
All proceeds from this event benefit St. Jude, where families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.
Matching gifts are an easy way to increase your donation to St. Jude — at no additional cost to you! Many employers support your altruistic efforts by offering matching gift programs to your favorite charities. Check if your employer will match your gift to St. Jude or contact us at matchinggifts@stjude.org.
For information on sponsorship and volunteer opportunities at next year's event, please contact Jennifer Edmister at jennifer.edmister@alsac.stjude.org.
St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes to help doctors and researchers at local hospitals and cancer centers around the world improve the quality of treatment and care for even more children.
