An estimated 400,000 children worldwide get cancer each year. In many countries, 4 out of 5 will not survive, largely due to the lack of access to quality care. This is why we work to find a cure for childhood cancer while ensuring no family recieves a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food.
Every child deserves a chance to live their best life and celebrate every moment. When you support St. Jude, you can help make cures possible for kids with cancer. Together, we can save more lives.
- Expanding both the Department of Global Pediatric Medicine and St. Jude Global.
- Developing St. Jude-staffed regional operation units that are strategically located to meet the growing needs of the St. Jude Global Alliance.
- Expanding infrastructure to run clinical trials around the world.
- Leading the development of a worldwide drug distribution program to provide the medicines required to treat pediatric cancer patients.
- Developing and testing country and region-specific approaches to expand pathology and laboratory medicine diagnostic services to care for children with cancer.
