Nearly 80,000 people in communities nationwide showed their support for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by participating in the second annual St. Jude Walk/Run to End Childhood Cancer during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in September. This inspiring family-friendly event encourages participants to walk, run and fundraise for the lifesaving mission of St. Jude. Participants in the 5K event this year raised more than $9 million and counting. St. Jude won’t stop until no child dies of cancer.
