Be a St. Jude Hero, and run for the kids of St. Jude

Run, ride and triathlon participants who fundraise at least $250 for St. Jude while training for their race are part of a nationwide alliance against childhood cancer. They're called St. Jude Heroes.

Registering for your race as a St. Jude Hero means an online training program, race-day extras — from a St. Jude singlet to hotel accommodations, depending on your event and fundraising commitment — and possibly even entry into the most exclusive races in the world. You can also earn additional prizes based on how much you raise.

How fundraising helps

St. Jude freely shares research
St. Jude freely shares the discoveries it makes. Every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists in your community and worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

We won't stop.™
Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80%. We won't stop until no child dies from cancer.

Families never receive a bill
No matter what, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food.
