Save the date for the Dinners, Galas and Golf Leadership Summit (DGGLS) on November 13 - 15, 2024 at The Peabody Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. Together, we'll celebrate the ways we "Do the Good" to help advance the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital: Finding cures. Saving children.®
St. Jude founder Danny Thomas believed, "Those who work for the good are as those who do the good.” Leading up to this year's summit, we'll host inspirational speakers on our "Do the Good" Audio Series, which you can listen to below.
Together, through the sharing of our ideas, challenges and successes, we'll elevate our events to increase awareness and fundraising to support the work of St. Jude.
