Thank you for joining St. Jude friends and supporters on April 3, 2024 for the 10th annual St. Jude Miracle on the Bayfront Gala at The White Room in beautiful downtown St. Augustine, Florida.
We came together once again to enjoy a pre-event cocktail hour, dinner, live and silent auctions and live rooftop entertainment and dancing, all to further the lifesaving mission of St. Jude: Finding cures. Saving children.®
