Description
St. Jude Runs is an annual charity event that raises funds for the mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The mission of St. Jude inspires hope in patients and families in their darkest hour through lifesaving cures, freely sharing breakthroughs globally, and covering the treatment cost for the family. As a St. Jude Runner, 2,000+ participants have chosen to make your journey to the finish line part of something bigger. On July 20, 2024, they will be running for more than a time, a record, or a medal – you will be running for hope. Since its 1982 inception, St. Jude Runs has raised over $82,172,076 to further the mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Every dollar raised brings us one step closer to our own finish line: one that ensures that ‘no child should die in the dawn of life.’
