As mothers, we understand that all our futures depend on our children being able to reach their full potential. And as women moved by our love and compassion for children, we chose St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in 1983 as our National Charity. Since then, Woman's Life members have donated more than $843,107 to St. Jude.

St. Jude was founded by entertainer Danny Thomas and opened in 1962.  Today, over 4,900 children from across the U.S. and over 70 foreign countries are treated annually at the facility.

All patients accepted for treatment at St. Jude are treated without regard to the family's ability to pay.  St. Jude covers all costs of treatment at St. Jude beyond those reimbursed by third-party insurers, and total costs at St. Jude when no insurance is available.  St. Jude also provides assistance with transportation costs and local living expenses during treatments.

We continue to provide assistance to this valuable facility, so they can continue to provide support, relief - and perhaps someday a cure for cancer and other catastrophic diseases affecting children.
