Please join Dionne and Trevor Kirschner and Nina and Ted Wass in celebrating Childhood Cancer Awareness Month this September. Although we won't be gathering in person this year, your support ensures that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.
Thank you for your donation in any amount to support the lifesaving mission of St. Jude: Finding cures. Saving children.®
For more information on how to support St. Jude in Southern California, please contact Sarah Potter at sarah.potter@alsac.stjude.org.

One of the most remarkable lives of 20th Century America began on Jan. 6, 1912 — the birthdate of Danny Thomas. He achieved fame as a TV star, but his greatest role was raising the funds to build St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, on the belief that no child should die in the dawn of life.
