Friends of St. Jude — Miami

Friends of St. Jude (FOSJ) is a group of young professionals dedicated to the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. For more than a decade, FOSJ Miami has raised over one million dollars for the kids of St. Jude and ranks among the top fundraising groups for St. Jude nationwide.

All proceeds from this event will benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food — because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
