THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING

St. Jude Day at the Derby

A Baton Rouge event

Thank you for attending St. Jude Day at the Derby, a culinary experience benefiting the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Guests watched the 2019 Kentucky Derby while indulging in derby-inspired food and drinks from local chefs, bid on auction items and participated in a wine pull.

Your contributions help ensure that 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.

You can still support the lifesaving mission of St. Jude

Every gift you give makes a real impact in the lives of St. Jude kids and their families.

One pair of crutches

Crutches sized especially for children help them maneuver during treatment. Raising just $100 can help St. Jude provide the tools necessary for our young patients to stay mobile.
One red blood cell transfusion

Children undergoing treatment for cancer and other life-threatening diseases often need transfusions. The funds you raise can help St. Jude provide the best care and treatment for patients.
One hour of physical therapy

Physical therapy helps ensure every child treated here enjoys the highest quality of life possible.
Two days of oxygen

During treatment, St. Jude patients may need oxygen to help their bodies function properly and aid in healing. Raising $750 can help cover the cost of two days of oxygen for a St. Jude patient.
Patient family necessities for 20

Parents who bring their children to St. Jude often leave home in a hurry and forget to pack day-to-day necessities, such as shampoos, razors, deodorant, toothbrushes and lotion. Your fundraising goal of $1,000 can ensure that parents at Tri Delta Place, our short-term housing facility, can obtain these essentials free of charge.
