St. Jude patient Lillian, age 8,acute lymphoblastic leukemia
The St. Jude Math-A-Thon is your chance to show what kids can do when they work together. Kids under the care of experts at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® are battling childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases, and you can help. St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food—because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
Now you can help the kids of St. Jude! Thank you and good luck!
In June 2014, Sebastian’s family learned he was very sick. At St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, Sebastian’s doctors worked hard to make sure he got better. Sebastian loves math, soccer and video games. He also likes to play with his big sister, Valentina; they’re best friends.
