St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is a leading pediatric research institution and treatment center based in Memphis, Tennessee. Founded in 1962 by entertainer Danny Thomas, St. Jude is dedicated to advancing the research and treatment of catastrophic childhood diseases, particularly pediatric cancers. The hospital is renowned for its pioneering work in developing treatments that have significantly increased survival rates for childhood cancers, including leukemia and brain tumors. St. Jude operates on a unique model where families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing, or food, ensuring that financial burdens do not hinder a child’s access to care. This is made possible by extensive fundraising efforts and donations. In addition to its clinical care, St. Jude conducts cutting-edge research to find cures for childhood diseases, and it freely shares its discoveries with the global medical community to improve the lives of children worldwide.
