Thank you for participating in the second annual St. Jude Presents: The Big Raise, sponsored by American Guardian Warranty Services.
This two-day event, held February 26 – 27, 2023, takes place in Kissimmee, Florida, on the beautiful grounds of Reunion Resort and Golf Club. Sunday evening features a night of cocktails, dinner, both live and silent auctions and an inspiring St. Jude Mission Moment. Monday is highlighted by a breakfast of champions and an exciting 18 holes of golf.
This event supports the livesaving mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – so families can focus on helping their child live.

When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was considered incurable. Since then, St. Jude has helped push the overall survival rate from 20% to more than 80%, and we won't stop until no child dies from cancer.
