Located in Memphis, TN, St. Jude was founded by Danny Thomas more than fifty years ago. They specialize in pediatric cancer treatment and research. No child is ever denied treatment at St. Jude because of a family's inability to pay. They operate as a 501c3 not for profit, supported primarily by ALSAC, its fundraising operation.
St. Jude is unique in that it houses research and patient care in the same facility. It also freely shares its discoveries with the scientific communities around the world. St. Jude is a wonderful and worthy organization.
