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.

We won't stop until no child dies from cancer
St. Jude has helped push the childhood cancer survival rate from 20% when we opened to 80% today.
Our founder believed that "no child should die in the dawn of life," and we’ve spent more than half a century focusing on our mission:
Finding cures. Saving children.
Saving children everywhere
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.
From fundraising to volunteering, there are many ways for you to support St. Jude
