Marlo Thomas
Dear Rena,

Thank you for your past support for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  You have helped
St. Jude treat children who are fighting for their
lives against cancer and other ready diseases.

But today, I must ask for your support once again
to provide for the needs of innocent children like David, Yamila, and Mack and their families.

These children and children like them come from all over the world to get the worltreatment. Their families never receive a bill from St. Jude for anything - not for treatment, travel, housing or food. 

Unlike any other hospital,
the majority of our funding comes from individual donors like you
to continue our lifesaving mission.

Please help us ... now, while you're thinking about it.  Click the heart to make your
contribution to St. Jude Children's Research Center.  We depend on you.
Your help saves lives.

Again I send my heartfelt thanks,                             
                   

 
Marlo Thomas

families never pay

. . . when a child is treated at St. Jude   
 
They never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food - because all they should worry about is helping their child live.  The budgeted daily operating cost of St. Jude is $2 million.  Approximately 75% of the budgeted costs are covered by public contributions. 
 

It costs a lot for St. Jude to cure a child with cancer using the latest technologies and care. 
But because of people like you, the   price for patient families is 
 
Many families come to St. Jude thinking it's like any other hospital. They expect to pay high fees to get their child the best care. 
They're overwhelmed with gratitude when they learn we'll work to save their child's life for free using world-class care.
 
you give parents that incredible feeling of hope

   . . . hope that is reflected in quotes from some of our parents:
