Join us March 19, 2024 for Strikes for St. Jude, a family-friendly bowling event to raise funds and awareness for the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. St. Jude supporters within the Pittsburgh community will come together to strike out sickle cell and other childhood catastrophic diseases.
Matching gifts are an easy way to increase your donation to St. Jude — at no additional cost to you!

Every child deserves a chance to live their best life and celebrate every moment. When you support St. Jude, you can help make cures possible for kids with cancer. Together, we can save more lives.

Austin's Wagon Walk
Inspired by a patient's story he heard on the radio, a young Pittsburgh boy follows his heart to fundraise for St. Jude.
Because of your support, we can provide children cutting-edge treatments not covered by insurance, at no cost to families.
When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was considered largely incurable. Since then, St. Jude has helped push the overall survival rate from 20% to more than 80%, and we won't stop until no child dies from cancer.
St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes to help doctors and researchers at local hospitals and cancer centers around the world improve the quality of treatment and care for even more children.
Every dollar makes a difference*
I'd rather have a million people give me a dollar than one give me a million. That way you've got a million people involved.
