Thank you for joining us for the 17th annual Pittsburgh St. Jude Gala on Friday, June 21, 2024 at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In celebration of the lifesaving mission of St. Jude, guests enjoyed delicious food and drinks while overlooking the North Shore, a thrilling live auction, a meaningful Give To Live segment and an inspiring story from a St. Jude patient family.
All proceeds from this event benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.
For information on volunteering or becoming a sponsor at next year's Pittsburgh St. Jude Gala, please contact Jamie Rhoades at (412) 328-6632 or Jamie.Rhoades@alsac.stjude.org.
St. Jude provides comprehensive care and health equality for children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases. We tailor treatment for each child's unique needs, improving outcomes for some of the world’s sickest children.
