Patient Slater and brother Sawyer watched fellow St. Jude patient Hayley aboard the historic
@inspiration4x
mission. Their father said, "It's proof that with St Jude, these kids really do overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and even the sky is no longer the limit."
We appreciate
@POTUS
for creating awareness, pledging increased funding for childhood cancer, the leading cause of death by disease in U.S. kids. It will take all of us working together to fulfill
@stjude
Founder Danny Thomas’ dream: “No child should die in the dawn of life.”
This just in from

Katie became a St. Jude patient in 2011, after being diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Now she’s back home and happy to report that her first day of fourth grade was full of friends and fun. “We’re so proud and thankful for Katie,” said her mom.
This morning I got an opportunity to visit St. Jude.
I met the staff, patient families & toured their campus.
I didn't tell St. Jude I was raising money for them. I just did it.
Today, I saw where it goes. Who it goes to. The herculean effort of these amazing people.
Congrats to our supporter
